The Chaos Manager is an innovative tool that uses local Large Language Models (LLaMA/Llama 3) to automatically analyze your cluttered Downloads, Desktop, or other directories and organize them into a clean, professional, and logical folder structure.
There are two ways to start the Chaos Manager: Jump directly to Installation & Start.
- Operating System: Windows 10/11 (The .exe is compiled for Windows only.)
- AI Backend: Ollama (You must install and run Ollama to provide the AI models.)
Since the Chaos Manager is a newly built, unsigned .exe file that accesses your file system, Windows Defender SmartScreen might show a warning when you first run it.
🔒 Message: "Windows protected your PC"
This is normal behavior for new programs that modify the file system. The project is open source, and the code is secure.
- In the blue warning window, click "More info".
- Then, click "Run anyway".
Choose ONE of the following methods to start the Chaos Manager.
To run the project directly from the source code and maintain full control, follow these steps:
