Files recipe

Find out what's actually in that folder

A project folder grows for months and nobody knows what's in it any more, which files matter, or what can be deleted.

files no model needed free tier Free tier

What you get

A report listing what's in the workspace, saved where you can read it.

What it does

  1. Scan the project folder.
  2. Write an inventory report to your desktop.
  3. Notify you that it's ready.

The whole automation, in one file

This is the actual recipe. Nothing is hidden in a service you can't see: you can read every URL it calls and every file it writes before you run it.

Download this recipe · Runs on the free tier: local files and a local model only.

Why this is different

The recipe declares exactly which folder it reads and which file it writes. Nothing scans your whole drive quietly in the background.

Questions

Does this work on the free tier?

Yes. It only touches local files, which the free tier allows.

Can I point it at any folder?

Yes, the folder is the target of the first step.

Run it
