Which Copy Do I Keep? Sloth-Powered Folder Tidying with a Local Gemma
This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge: Week 3 — Slow and Steady . Your Downloads folder has contract.pdf , contract_final.pdf , contract_final_v2(1).pdf , and contract_FINAL (copy).pdf . You know one of them is the real one. You don't know which one. So you open all four, squint at the footer, find the signed copy, close three tabs — or worse, you pick wrong and sign…
The Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge presents "Keeper", an AI tool for sorting and managing folders. Imagine having a sloth's patience for tedious file organization tasks; Keeper could automate the process, thanks to its unique approach. It scans folders, identifies duplicates and near-duplicates, and decides which copy is the legitimate one to keep.
Instead of deleting files, it moves the losers into a quarantine folder, leaving the original untouched. This tool is built on an open-weight model, ensuring no privacy concerns or exfiltration risks. It's lightweight, runs on low-end devices, and doesn't require any cloud dependencies. Keeper is not only efficient but also fully reversible, ensuring your folder's original state can be restored at any time.
