๐ ๐ One-Click Prompt
@OpenClaw I need you to help me organize a messy folder.
Context: I am using openclaw.
Safety confirmation (must-do)
Ask me to confirm:
- This will MOVE files (not delete), so paths will change
- Try a test folder first
- Never run on system folders (e.g., C:\Windows, /System)
Step 1 โ Environment check
- Check whether @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem is installed.
- If missing, ask whether to install it.
Step 2 โ Select target folder
Ask me for an absolute path and confirm again that moving files is OK.
Step 3 โ Analyze (non-recursive)
Scan only the top-level files (no subfolders).
Group by type and propose folders like:
- Images/, Documents/, Videos/, Audio/, Archives/, Code/, Others/
Step 4 โ Final confirmation
Show a summary (counts + planned folders) and ask me to approve.
Step 5 โ Execute
1) Create folders
2) Move files with progress updates
3) Skip locked/no-permission files and report them
4) Finish with a clear summary and how to undo
Failure handling
If any error happens (permissions, locked files, path missing), explain the reason and offer the next step.
Throughout this workflow, communicate with me in English.
๐ก Tip: Click โCopy Promptโ, then paste it into openclaw to start.

โ FAQ
Does it delete files?
No. It moves files into subfolders. Undo is usually just moving them back.
