Working agents for your folders

Your file explorer. Now it does the work.

Right-click a file to summarize, translate, or convert it. Leave an agent in a folder and it keeps working while you're away.

Right-click

Right-click, and it's done

Pick the actions you want from the built-in plugin catalog once. From then on they live in the right-click menu of the files they apply to — no prompts to write, no instruction file to edit.

Chat & AI Search

Ask the folder

Chat and AI Search answer from the files in the folder you're looking at. Step into a subfolder and the answers narrow with you — the folder you see is the scope you get.

Folder agents

Leave an agent in the folder

Write what you want in plain language in the folder's AGENTS.md. Its agent runs on file events, on a schedule, or when a message arrives — and keeps going while you're away.

Invoices/.filer/AGENTS.md
# Filer Instructions

This folder holds client invoices for the finance team.

## What to do

- When a new invoice PDF is added to Invoices/, extract the amount,
  due date, and customer name, and note it in a running summary.
- If asked which invoices are unpaid, check for missing
  payment-confirmation fields and list them with amounts and due dates.
- Never modify files in Invoices/ directly — read-only analysis,
  always respond in chat.
  • File events

    A file lands in the folder or changes, and the agent runs.

  • Schedules

    Every morning, every Friday, or whenever you set.

  • Messages

    Send a message from Telegram, Slack, or email and get an answer back.

Activity shows every run — what the agent read, wrote, and sent.

Models

Your AI, your choice

Filer is the file explorer. The model is whatever you want it to be.

  • A local model

    Download a model once and run everything on your own machine.

  • Your own API key

    Plug in the provider you already pay for. Filer adds no markup and no middleman.

  • Your company's AI server

    Point Filer at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint your team already runs.

Security

One folder, one boundary

The folder you see in Explorer is the line an agent cannot cross. Everything it can do is scoped to the folder it lives in.

  • A trust level per folder

    From read-only to fully autonomous — you decide how much to hand over, folder by folder.

  • Secrets stay out

    Credential files and system paths are denylisted. An agent never reads what it should not.

  • Risky steps wait for you

    Deleting, moving, running a command or rolling back waits for you unless the level you set allows it. Creating and editing files runs on its own.
