dir_treeGenerate a visual directory tree structure with configurable depth and ignore patterns
file_statsAnalyze a directory: total files, size breakdown by extension, largest/newest/oldest files
duplicate_finderFind duplicate files by size + MD5 hash, report wasted space
code_counterCount lines of code by language: code, comments, and blank lines (like cloc/scc)
file_searchSearch files by name glob, content regex, size range, and date range
