Sloth Sorter: an offline, low-RAM file organizer with safe undo
Sloth Sorter is an open-source command-line tool that tidies cluttered folders such as Downloads by sorting and optionally renaming files. It runs entirely offline on low-end laptops, using simple rules plus a small static embedding model to classify documents when enabled. The tool is designed for safety: it defaults to a dry run, never deletes files, and logs every move so changes can be reverted with SHA-256 verification. On the author's benchmark it reached 100% accuracy on synthetic documents, though the embedding tier was noticeably weaker on a real, messy Downloads folder. The project was built as a submission to the Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge.
