Ask HN: Help finding a smart file organizer that uses a local LLM

Does this exist? I’m looking for a tool where I point it at a folder and it runs all of the files through a local LLM and then spits out a nice organized layout (and optionally moves/organizes all the files). I found this open source version (https://github.com/QiuYannnn/Local-File-Organizer) which I think in theory is what I’m looking for but it doesn’t really work well (it crashed on my files and was hard to install). Ideal feature set: - Entirely local, no sending my files anywhere - Can run on my MacBook pro - Handles most file types, including audio, images, text, PDF, etc - Can be commercial, I’d be willing to pay 10-20 bucks or so for it Nice to have: - Can handle a fairly large number of files (1k-10k) - Doesn’t take a million years to run - Doesn’t require a monthly subscription - Easy to use and setup -

Cross platform (works on windows/linux with a GPU) I want this badly enough that I might just build it myself if it doesn’t already exist.

Show HN: I built a Python script uses AI to organize files, runs 100% locally

I wanted a file management tool that actually understands what my files are about. Previous projects like LlamaFS (https://github.com/iyaja/llama-fs) aren't 100% local and require an AI API. So, I created a Python script that leverages AI to organize local files, running entirely on your device for complete privacy. It uses Google Gemma2 2B and llava-v1.6-vicuna-7b models for processing. Note: You won't need any API key and internet connection to run this project, it runs models entirely on your device. What it does: - Scans a specified input directory for files - Understands the content of your files (text, images, and more) to generate relevant descriptions, folder names, and filenames - Organizes the files into a new directory structure based on the generated metadata Supported file types: - Images: .png, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif,

.bmp - Text Files: .txt, .docx - PDFs: .pdf Supported systems: macOS, Linux, Windows It's fully open source. For demo & installation guide - GitHub: (https://github.com/QiuYannnn/Local-File-Organizer) Shoutout to Nexa SDK (https://github.com/NexaAI/nexa-sdk). I discovered it on Reddit and it made this project possible by allowing LM and VLM running entirely on local devices. What do you think about this project? Is there anything you would like to see in the future version? Thank you!
