FileNest 0.1.0

FileNest is a privacy-first Windows desktop organizer that scans only folders you select, builds an explicit move-only cleanup plan, and records approved operations in a local SQLite journal for integrity-checked undo.

Highlights

  • Read-only selected-folder scanning with no symlink traversal
  • Exact duplicate detection using size-first, streaming BLAKE3 hashing
  • Stale, large-file, installer, archive, screenshot, and organization insights
  • Explicit move-only cleanup plans with destination-conflict protection
  • Root-bound operation journal, conservative restart recovery, and verified undo
  • Unicode and Arabic filename support plus local SQLite FTS5 search
  • React/TypeScript interface packaged with Tauri 2 and Rust

Verified evidence

  • 20 Rust tests and 8 frontend tests passed locally
  • Fresh-clone frontend, Rust, lifecycle, benchmark-smoke, and NSIS packaging workflow passed
  • Windows installer installed silently, launched responsively, initialized with zero demo rows, and uninstalled cleanly
  • Synthetic in-process scanner benchmark: median 5,042 files/second across five runs on 10,000 generated files

Important limitations

  • The installer is not code-signed, so Windows may show a publisher or SmartScreen warning.
  • Cross-volume cleanup actions are refused rather than emulated through a risky copy/delete fallback.
  • OneDrive and other synchronized folders remain subject to provider-controlled hydration and synchronization.
  • The benchmark uses generated small files and is not an end-to-end or real-world storage claim.

Verify the installer using the attached .sha256 file before running it.
