Consolidate scattered files into logical directories to improve workspace organization and discoverability.

Protocol

1. Assess current workspace structure

   • Catalog loose files in the workspace directory
   • Identify existing folder structure and naming conventions
   • Determine semantic relationships and project groupings before considering file types

2. Identify semantic organization opportunities

   • Group files by project, context, or domain first
   • Preserve existing directories that represent meaningful organization
   • Look for related items that should stay together despite different file types

3. Protect special directories

   • Identify any directories containing file zosite.json files, as well as any directories called Articles or Prompts
   • Do not touch, move, or reorganize these directories—they are managed project structures
   • Leave them in place regardless of other organizational changes

4. Create organized folder structure (if not already present):

   • Projects/ – for active and completed projects
   • Research/ – for articles, PDFs, and reference materials
   • Data/ – for spreadsheets, CSVs, and datasets
   • Documents/ – for notes, plans, and written content
   • Archive/ – for old or completed items

5. Consolidate files by semantic meaning, then by type:

   • Prioritize grouping by project or context over pure file type
   • Move related files together into semantic folders when meaningful
   • Within semantic folders, organize by type if needed

6. Organize supporting files:

   Projects/ – Project folders and related files

   • Move project directories and associated content into this structure

   Research/ – Articles, PDFs, and reference materials

   • Move: PDF files, research documents, reference articles, and external content

   Data/ – Spreadsheets and datasets

   • Move: CSV files, XLSX files, and other tabular data

   Documents/ – Notes, plans, and written content

   • Move: Markdown files, text documents, planning documents, and analysis

   Archive/ – Old or completed items

   • Move: Outdated files, deprecated versions, and completed projects

7. Consolidate without destroying:

   • Review existing subdirectories for related content and redundancies
   • Integrate contents into the appropriate semantic structure
   • Keep all original directories intact—do not delete any folders

8. Ensure there are no remaining loose files in the workspace directory

9. Document the new structure:

   • Create file WORKSPACE_STRUCTURE.md at the root explaining the folder organization

Output

Inform the user that the workspace has been reorganized:

• List the new folder structure created
• Provide a count of files moved and their destinations
• Suggest next steps for navigating the reorganized workspace
• Note any files that required manual review or decisions about placement
• Ask the user if they have any organization preferences that they would like to use in the future, modifying this command
