File Organizer

Intelligently organize and rename files based on their content and metadata.

Overview

This skill helps you:

• Analyze file contents to determine categorization
• Suggest folder structures
• Generate consistent naming conventions
• Identify and handle duplicates
• Create organization systems

How to Use

Analyze Files

"Analyze these files and suggest how to organize them"
"What category does this file belong to?"
"Suggest a better filename for this document"

Organize

"Create a folder structure for my project files"
"Organize my downloads folder"
"Sort these invoices by vendor and date"

Naming Conventions

Recommended Formats

Documents

YYYY-MM-DD_Category_Description_v1.ext
Example: 2026-01-29_Contract_ClientName_NDA_v1.pdf

Images

YYYY-MM-DD_Event/Project_Description_NNN.ext
Example: 2026-01-29_ProductLaunch_HeroImage_001.png

Invoices/Receipts

YYYY-MM-DD_Vendor_Amount_InvoiceNumber.ext
Example: 2026-01-29_Adobe_149.99_INV-12345.pdf

Meeting Notes

YYYY-MM-DD_MeetingType_Topic.ext
Example: 2026-01-29_TeamSync_Q1Planning.md

Naming Rules

• Use underscores or hyphens, not spaces
• Start with date for chronological sorting
• Include key identifiers (client, project, type)
• Add version numbers for iterations
• Keep names concise but descriptive

Analysis Capabilities

Content-Based Categorization

• Documents: Contracts, reports, letters, forms
• Financial: Invoices, receipts, statements, budgets
• Media: Photos, videos, audio, graphics
• Code: Source files, configs, documentation
• Data: Spreadsheets, databases, exports

Metadata Extraction

• Creation/modification dates
• Author information
• File dimensions (images/video)
• Duration (audio/video)
• Page count (documents)

Automation Rules

Example Rules

## Auto-Organization Rules

### Rule 1: Invoices
- Trigger: PDF with "Invoice" or "INV-" in content
- Action: Move to /Finance/Invoices/[Year]/[Month]/
- Rename: YYYY-MM-DD_Vendor_Amount.pdf

### Rule 2: Screenshots
- Trigger: File matches "Screenshot*.png"
- Action: Move to /Screenshots/[Year-Month]/
- Rename: YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM_Screenshot.png

### Rule 3: Downloads Cleanup
- Trigger: File in Downloads older than 30 days
- Action:
  - If document → Archive
  - If installer → Delete
  - If media → Sort to appropriate folder

Best Practices

Organization Principles

1. PARA Method: Projects, Areas, Resources, Archive
2. Date-First: Enables chronological sorting
3. Descriptive Names: Future you will thank you
4. Flat is Better: Avoid deep nesting (max 3-4 levels)
5. Regular Maintenance: Schedule monthly reviews

File Hygiene

• Delete duplicates and temp files
• Archive completed projects
• Use cloud sync for important files
• Maintain consistent naming
• Document your system

Limitations

• Cannot access protected/encrypted files
• Large file moves require manual execution
• Content analysis depends on file format support
• Cannot guarantee perfect categorization
• Manual review recommended for important files
