Sluice 1.0.0

Sluice sorts a pile of photos into a dated library, and helps you throw out the junk. Desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux, with a command-line interface alongside it for scripting and for driving it from an AI agent.

First public release. Nothing to migrate from - see the README for what it does, install and configuration, and the safety model.

Installing

• Windows: sluice.exe, a self-installing bootstrapper.
• macOS: sluice-1.0.0-mac-aarch64.zip (Apple Silicon) or sluice-1.0.0-mac-amd64.zip (Intel). Unzip and drag the app to Applications.
• Linux: sluice_1.0.0_amd64.deb or sluice_1.0.0_arm64.deb for Debian- and Ubuntu-based distributions. sluice-1.0.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz / sluice-1.0.0-linux-aarch64.tar.gz for a portable install elsewhere.

Installed copies update themselves. The command line ships inside every install - sluice --help once it's on your PATH.

Judging your photos

Sluice never judges a photo itself - you choose what does. An agent you already run yourself (sluice skill prints ready-to-save instructions), or a vision API called from inside the app. Both are covered in the README's provider caveats.
