SlothSort: The Zero-Effort Clutter Tidier for International Sloth Day

Description and use

SlothSort automatically organizes desktop and download files locally with Gemma 2 for semantic renaming and ElevenLabs for a voice recap, preserving privacy and eliminating API costs.

Problem

Developers and knowledge workers struggle with chaotic download and desktop folders filled with messy filenames, causing cognitive fatigue and manual effort.

Outcome

SlothSort automates desktop file organization locally, eliminating privacy risks, API costs, and requiring no internet, while providing a voice summary of saved effort.

Workflow

• Drop or paste clutter into the UI
• Gemma 2 (via Ollama) inspects and categorizes files, producing structured JSON
• Files are renamed to consistent ISO/semantic names
• An auto‑generated bash script (organize.sh) is created
• Optional ElevenLabs voice debrief is played

Evidence

SlothSort is a zero‑effort desktop and download tidier that channels your inner sloth
