SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Many development and automation tasks require reliable local file system operations but performing them manually is error-prone and time-consuming. This Skill provides a programmatic, consistent interface to create, read, write, move, copy, delete, search, and inspect files and directories so agents can manipulate repository and workspace files safely and reproducibly.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Create, write, and append file contents with automatic parent-directory creation.
  • Read files with configurable encoding and report size and line counts.
  • Copy and move files or directories, including recursive directory copy.
  • Delete files or directories with optional recursive removal and cautious error handling.
  • Search files by glob pattern and by content with contextual matching lines, and produce structured JSON results.
  • Use Case: Collect all Python source files in a project, search for TODO markers, and produce a JSON report of matches including file paths and line numbers.

Quick Start

List all Python files in the current project recursively and return their paths and sizes as JSON.

Frequently Asked Questions about allbeingsfuture/skills@file-manager

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I search for specific text content across multiple files in a workspace?▼

You can search file content by substring matches across the workspace, returning structured JSON results with contextual matching lines and file paths to locate specific text quickly.

How do I recursively list directory contents and filter files by glob patterns?▼

You can recursively list directory contents using basic glob patterns to filter files, returning structured JSON results containing file paths and sizes for programmatic consumption and automation workflows.

Can I safely move, copy, and delete directories without losing parent path structure?▼

Yes, directory move, copy, and delete operations support recursive execution and automatic parent-directory creation, ensuring safe structural manipulation while properly handling common filesystem errors during automation.

Does file management automation support reading file metadata and line counts?▼

Yes, file management automation supports reading files with configurable encoding while reporting file size and line counts, retrieving file metadata to provide structured JSON output for developer workflows and automation tasks.

What is the best way to automate creating and writing files with missing parent directories?▼

The best way to automate file creation and writing is using programmatic interfaces with automatic parent-directory creation and content appending, ensuring reproducible filesystem operations without manual directory setup.

How are filesystem errors handled during automated file operations?▼

Filesystem errors during automated file operations are handled cautiously, applying safe error handling practices to delete, move, and copy tasks to prevent silent failures and ensure reproducible workspace manipulation.
