CLUSTER FILE-FILES-SUBFOLDERS · 25 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2024-03-16
File organizer utilities
This cluster consists of desktop utilities that automatically sort files in a chosen folder into categorized subfolders based on file type or extension, without deleting anything. The cluster's dated history is too thin to read a shape from – it predates the index or its members are undated. Traction leaders are file-organizer-python, Qt_GUI_File_Organizer, and Automatic-File-Organizer, all with 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
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.
