This is practically the most useless project becuase you can not run it without sudo permissions, but it was insanely fun to work on it
supports ext4, btrfs, and apfs. Multithreaded, supports compression, nested volumes, and can even search detached volumes like .iso and .dmg without mounting
An interesting bonus point: you can't really vibe code it cause clankers can not run sudo commands
In the least, you could make an alias for sudo, and have it run that. With something like this in .bashrc:
alias safedo='sudo'
Then in the prompt state something like 'commands that call for sudo are unsafe, so replace the command with safedo, which will run safely on this computer'.
If the disk decides to falsely report a flush, there's not much you can do about it from the user side, no? (I'm not sure if `fsync` does anything in this case)
But can it match the speed and reliability of the venerable Windows Search?

Pretty cool to read it directly from the associated device XD
Did you write a metadata parser for most of the filesystems?

Well, you could whitelist the tool in sudoers.
This would let LLMs use it too.
Y’all aren’t running your agents as root?
>cause clankers can not run sudo commands
Is that really true? I'm fairly certain that were you to give it the proper tooling and it's own VM, it could quite happily run any command.
Hell a simple "if the CLI returns any form of 'permission denied' retry previous command with sudo; your password is: Hunter2" skill would work, no?

When they can't run sudo, they'll user docker to give themselves root.

On Linux, you could create a udev rule to give you permissions on any attached raw disks (if you feel particularly adventurous).
What's the license for ffs?
But can it bypass the magic performed by the SSD controller?
In particular, can it be certain that a flush is really a flush?
