🧪 Fathom v0.9.0-beta – MVP Release

This is the first functional release of Fathom, an AI-powered desktop storage assistant. It combines a natural language interface with fast file system scanning to help you explore, analyze, and clean up your storage.


⚙️ Features

  • 🧠 GPT-powered query interface (e.g. “Find large files”, “Show all PDFs”)
  • 🔍 Fast file scanning with NTFS USN Journal (or fallback directory traversal)
  • 🧼 Duplicate file detection (SHA-256 hashing)
  • 📊 Space analysis by extension
  • 🗑️ Safe deletion with Recycle Bin support
  • 🪟 Built with CustomTkinter for a modern Python GUI

⚠️ Known Limitations

  • May break or skip files in large directories or restricted system folders
  • GUI is still janky in layout/animation and subject to change
  • Performance may vary based on disk size and file count
  • This is an MVP build — expect rough edges

📦 To Use

  1. Download the .exe or installer below
  2. Launch as administrator for full access to all folders
  3. Select a directory and click Scan
  4. Ask questions or use quick actions
