Principles
Organizing should preserve context, not erase it.
Not every folder needs a fresh start
An inbox and a project archive serve different purposes. A pile of downloads may need sorting; an established project may already have meaningful internal order. Your existing structure deserves a place in the workflow.
Decisions before automation
A suggestion is not permission. FileFlow separates choosing destinations from executing the resulting plan, so you can inspect the proposed change before it happens.
AI is an assistant, not a prerequisite
Manual organization is a complete path through the product. An external model can suggest classifications, but using it should remain a deliberate choice.
Records are useful. Backups are different.
Activity and recovery records help explain an operation. They are not copies of every past file state. Honest limits matter more than promising that everything can be undone.
Order that fits your work
Use a Johnny.Decimal template or your own folders. The point is not a perfect taxonomy. It is a structure you can keep using and understand when you return.
