Exactly this. If it starts moving files around, who knows where will they end up.

No— you have to explicitly checkmark it for the change to happen. We saw the famous OpenInterpreter tweet where the agent deleted every file on someone’s computer. We wanted to avoid that

A `dry run` mode producing a symbolic link based reorganized copy of the folder would be nice.

Hmm or just make it produce symbolic links by default, and then if you want, allow you to "commit" changes, which would actually move these files. Any downsides to this?

Could also have integrity checks that total number of files and their attributes didn't change after the commit

Cool project OP

Hopefully not. LLMs hallucinate. It will move some critical files somewhere random n levels deep in some node folder you will never be able to find

It's perfect for organizing people's /tmp folder

/dev/null seems like a nice destination

Yeah, the thought of some LLM based hallucinating piece of software moving my files around gives me anxiety.
