AI-assisted CLI for organizing files.

Project description

Dorgy

dorgy is an AI-assisted command line toolkit that keeps growing collections of files tidy. The project already ships ingestion, classification, organization, watch, search, and undo workflows while we continue to flesh out the roadmap captured in SPEC.md.

Why Dorgy?

  • Hands-off organization – classify, rename, and relocate files using DSPy-backed language models plus fast heuristic fallbacks.
  • Continuous monitoring – watch directories, batch changes, and export machine-readable summaries for downstream automation.
  • Rich undo and audit history – track every operation in .dorgy/ so reorganizations remain reversible.
  • Extensible foundation – configuration is declarative, tests are automated via uv, and the roadmap is public.

Installation

We are preparing the first PyPI release. Until the package lands on the index, install from source:

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/bryaneburr/dorgy.git
cd dorgy

# Sync dependencies (includes dev extras)
uv sync

# Optional: install an editable build
uv pip install -e .

When the dorgy package is published to PyPI you will be able to install it directly:

# Using pip
pip install dorgy

# Using uv
uv pip install dorgy

Quickstart

# Inspect available commands
uv run dorgy --help

# Organize a directory in place (dry run first)
uv run dorgy org ./documents --dry-run
uv run dorgy org ./documents

# Monitor a directory and emit JSON batches
uv run dorgy watch ./inbox --json --once

# Undo the latest plan
uv run dorgy undo ./documents --dry-run
uv run dorgy status ./documents --json

CLI Highlights

  • dorgy org – batch ingest files, classify them, and apply structured moves with progress bars, summary/quiet toggles, and JSON payloads.
  • dorgy watch – reuse the same pipeline in a long-running service; guard destructive deletions behind --allow-deletions.
  • dorgy mv – move or rename tracked files while preserving state history.
  • dorgy status / dorgy undo – inspect prior plans, audit history, and restore collections when needed.
  • Configuration commandsdorgy config view|set|edit expose the full settings model.

All commands accept --json for machine-readable output and share standardized error payloads so automation can script around them.


Configuration Essentials

  • The primary config file lives at ~/.dorgy/config.yaml; environment variables follow DORGY__SECTION__KEY.
  • processing governs ingestion behaviour (batch sizes, captioning, concurrency, size limits). Enable processing.process_images to capture multimodal captions stored in .dorgy/vision.json.
  • organization controls renaming and conflict strategies (append number, timestamp, skip) and timestamp preservation.
  • cli toggles defaults for quiet/summary modes, Rich progress indicators, and move conflict handling (future releases will also surface search defaults).
  • Watch services share the organization pipeline and respect processing.watch.allow_deletions unless --allow-deletions is passed.
  • DSPy providers are configured through the llm block. Set DORGY_USE_FALLBACK=1 to force the heuristic classifier during local testing.

Release Workflow (In Flight)

  1. Bump the version in pyproject.toml, commit outstanding changes, and run uv run pre-commit run --all-files.
  2. Stage a TestPyPI dry run using a scoped token:
    export PYPI_TOKEN="pypi-AgEN..."
    uv publish --index-url https://test.pypi.org/legacy/ --token "$PYPI_TOKEN"
    
  3. Validate the wheel from a clean virtual environment:
    uv pip install --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple \
                   --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple dorgy==<version>
    dorgy --help
    
  4. Publish to PyPI with the production token, tag the release (git tag v<version>), and update SPEC.md plus notes/STATUS.md.
  5. Open a PR from feature/release-prep and merge after CI passes and the tag is confirmed.

Roadmap

  • SPEC.md tracks implementation phases and current status (Phase 9 – Distribution & Release Prep is underway; Phase 7 search/indexing work is queued next).
  • notes/STATUS.md logs day-to-day progress, blockers, and next actions.
  • Module-specific coordination details live in src/dorgy/**/AGENTS.md.

Upcoming milestones include vision-enriched classification refinements, enhanced CLI ergonomics, and expanded search/indexing APIs.


Contributing

We welcome issues and pull requests while the project matures. A few guidelines keep things predictable:

  • Environment – install dependencies with uv sync and run commands via uv run ....
  • Pre-commit – install hooks (uv run pre-commit install) and run uv run pre-commit run --all-files before pushing.
  • Branching – create feature branches named feature/<scope> and keep them rebased until ready for review.
  • Testing – the default pre-commit stack runs Ruff (lint/format/imports), MyPy, and uv run pytest.
  • Documentation – follow Google-style docstrings and update relevant AGENTS.md files when adding automation-facing behaviours or integrations.
  • Coordination – flag changes that impact the CLI contract, watch automation, or external integrations directly in the associated module AGENTS.md.

For release-specific work, use the branch/review workflow documented above and ensure TestPyPI validation is complete before tagging.
