Is it safe to use on project directories?

Yes, it is excellent for projects. It can help separate active source code from templates, assets, and archived versions to keep your workspace clean.

How does the duplicate detection work?

It uses shell commands to compare file sizes and MD5 hashes, ensuring that files are identical even if they have different names.

Does this skill delete files automatically?

No, the File Organizer always presents an organization plan or a list of duplicates first and requires your explicit confirmation before performing any deletions or moves.

Can it organize files based on their content?

Yes, it intelligently categorizes files into groups like Documents, Images, Media, and Code by analyzing extensions and metadata.

Can I customize the folder structure it creates?
