Overview

Provides advanced, scriptable filesystem operations (listing, searching, batch copying, tree visualization, and directory analysis) for Clawdbot-based agents, with rich filtering and safety controls.

Key Advantages

1.Comprehensive feature set spanning file listing, content search, batch copying, tree display, and directory statistics in a single skill.
2.Strong filtering and search capabilities including glob and regex patterns, include/exclude rules, and content-based search with context lines.
3.Safety-oriented design with path validation, permission checks, dry-run mode, overwrite controls, and backup prompts for potentially destructive operations.
4.Flexible output formats (table, list, JSON, tree) that suit both human inspection and machine consumption in automated workflows.
5.Configurable defaults via config.json for paths, depth limits, excluded patterns, output formatting, and colorization, enabling environment-specific tuning.

Use Cases

  • Codebase exploration: recursively list and filter project files, search for TODO/FIXME comments, and analyze language or file-type distribution.
  • Log and ops workflows: search within log directories, identify largest log files, and batch-copy or back up logs safely with dry runs.
  • Disk usage and cleanup: analyze size distributions and largest files to target cleanup efforts in /var, /tmp, or user directories.
  • Agent-assisted navigation: allow AI agents to inspect directory structure via tree views and detailed listings while respecting safety and permission constraints.
  • Backup and archival workflows: pattern-based copying of important files to backup locations with overwrite control and preservation of timestamps and permissions.

**Quick judgment** A mature, feature-rich filesystem utility for Clawdbot agents, suitable as a general-purpose file inspection, search, and batch-copying tool. It balances breadth of functionality with sensible safety controls, making it a strong default choice for agents that need non-destructive filesystem access and analysis. **Key strengths** - Covers most read-oriented needs: listing, powerful search (name + content), tree views, and directory statistics. - Batch copy with dry-run and overwrite safeguards is well-suited for semi-automated maintenance and backup workflows. - Good ergonomics for agents: consistent CLI-style subcommands, clear options, and machine-friendly output formats (JSON, tables, trees). **Risks and limitations** - Still inherently risky around write operations (batch copy and possible overwrites); misconfigured patterns or omitted `--dry-run` can lead to unintended data duplication or overwriting. - Full-text search and deep recursive traversal can be expensive on very large directory trees, potentially causing slow responses or timeouts if not constrained via path, depth, or patterns. - No explicit mention of delete/move operations (which is good for safety) but also means it is not a complete filesystem manipulation suite for workflows requiring full CRUD on files. **Recommended scenarios** - AI agents that need to explore and understand codebases or log directories without broad write/delete permissions. - Operational and SRE-style assistants that must locate large or recent files, inspect logs, and suggest cleanup targets, while keeping actual destructive steps under human control. - Backup, archival, and compliance/reporting workflows where an agent gathers file statistics, trees, and reports, and optionally stages safe copy operations with `--dry-run` for human review before execution.
