Prompt of the day

A copy-paste recipe from a real case, a new one every day at 00:00 UTC. Read it first, swap in your own details and run it on something low-stakes.

Organize Downloads and find duplicates

Claude Code · Personal Files

A non-developer runs Claude Code from their home directory to find duplicates, tidy Downloads, and suggest a cleaner directory structure.

Copy and paste
Review my Downloads folder. Find duplicates, propose a folder structure, move files into it, and list old files I probably do not need. Do not delete anything without asking.

My aside: Read the whole prompt before you paste it. I've pasted worse without reading.
