Bulk file renaming desktop apps

These are desktop applications for batch file renaming that provide rule stacking, live preview, collision detection, and undoable operations for safe file management. The cluster's dated history is too thin to read a shape from, with no dated entries before the index start. Traction is led by ZRename, which shows the highest activity signal of 2 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
