What is Folder Inspector?
The Folder Inspector is a specialized utility designed for AI agents to interact directly with local file systems. By providing an absolute path to a target directory, users can leverage this skill to gain immediate visibility into file structures, file sizes, and directory contents. It serves as a bridge between conversational AI and low-level system inspection, making it an essential component of the Openclaw Skills ecosystem for developers and power users who need to automate file system audits.
Folder Inspector Use Cases
- Listing all files and subdirectories within a specific local path.
- Identifying large files that consume excessive disk space for system maintenance.
- Auditing directory contents to verify deployment or installation success.
- Programmatically retrieving file metadata for subsequent processing by other agents.
How Folder Inspector Works
- The AI agent receives a user prompt regarding a specific directory or file size query.
- The agent resolves the provided path to an absolute format to ensure system accuracy.
- The Folder Inspector skill is invoked using the resolved path parameter.
- The system scans the directory entries and retrieves metadata for all files and folders.
- The structured results are returned to the agent to be synthesized into a human-readable summary.
Folder Inspector Setup
To integrate this skill into your environment, ensure your agent is configured to use the Openclaw Skills framework. Use the following command to add the skill:
openclaw install folder_inspector
Note: Ensure the user running the agent has the necessary read permissions for the target directories.
Folder Inspector Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill accepts a strict input schema and returns detailed file metadata. It is a core part of the Openclaw Skills data management strategy.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| path | string | The absolute path to the directory you wish to inspect. |
Output Data points:
- File Name: The identifier of the entry.
- Size: The total byte count of the file or directory.
- Entry Type: Classification as a file, directory, or symlink.
- Path Status: Verification that the path exists and is accessible.
Folder Inspector Advanced Features
- Context-aware path resolution that converts relative paths to absolute paths based on the agent's current working directory.
- Deep scanning support for auditing disk usage across complex directory trees.
- Seamless integration with other Openclaw Skills for automated file management and cleanup tasks.
- High-speed indexing for directories containing thousands of individual files.
