| description | Use this skill when the user asks the MoviePilot agent to identify and organize downloaded/local media files that automatic transfer cannot handle. Typical triggers include: manually organize a file or folder, organize unrecognized downloads, fix files stuck in a download directory, identify a messy episode pack, move/copy/link files into the library, or organize files by explicit TMDB/Douban ID. If the user gives failed transfer history IDs, prefer transfer-failed-retry instead. |

Organize Files (智能整理文件)
Use this skill to help the user identify media files that MoviePilot could not organize automatically, then call the normal transfer pipeline through transfer_file. Do not rename, move, or copy files manually; let MoviePilot's directory, transfer mode, rename template, overwrite, scrape, and notification settings handle the actual organization.
MoviePilot Transfer Flow
MoviePilot's normal flow is:
DownloadChain.download_single adds a downloader task, records DownloadHistory and DownloadFiles, runs downloader-specific download_added, then sends DownloadAdded.
TransferChain.process scans completed downloader tasks in monitored download directories. If a DownloadHistory exists for the hash, it reuses the recorded media IDs; otherwise it falls back to path recognition.
- Agent/manual organization calls
transfer_file, which enters TransferFileTool -> TransferChain.manual_transfer -> TransferChain.do_transfer.
do_transfer recursively collects eligible media/subtitle/audio files, ignores recycle/hidden paths and configured exclude words, resolves download history when possible, builds MetaInfoPath, then either uses explicit media info or calls MediaChain.recognize_by_meta.
TransferChain.__handle_transfer chooses the target directory through DirectoryHelper, delegates file operations to the file manager module, and lets TransHandler build the final target path and name.
- The callback writes
TransferHistory success/failure records, emits transfer events, sends notifications, and may trigger transfer-failed-retry for failed history records.
Important implication: an existing TransferHistory for the same source path can make a later transfer skip. Delete only stale or failed history records, and only after the user has confirmed the record is safe to remove.
Workflow
1. Classify The Request
- If the user provides one or more failed transfer history IDs, stop and use
transfer-failed-retry.
- If the user provides a path, start from that path.
- If the user describes a download task, use
query_download_tasks to find its save path or hash, then continue with the path.
- If the user only says "整理一下下载目录", use
query_directory_settings(directory_type="download") first, then ask which directory or subdirectory to process if more than one candidate exists.
2. Inspect Candidate Files
Use list_directory for any directory the user provides. Prefer sort_by="time" for "recent" or "刚下载的" requests.
For directories with more than 20 items, ask the user to narrow the folder or choose the relevant child directory before running transfers. Avoid organizing a broad shared download root unless the user explicitly confirms the scope.
Treat these as transfer candidates:
- main media files and Blu-ray folders;
- matching subtitle and external audio files in the same media folder;
- episode packs where files share the same title/season pattern.
Skip obvious samples, trailers, screenshots, hidden folders, recycle folders, and files that are not media/subtitle/audio.
3. Identify The Media
For the best sample file, call:
recognize_media(path="<source file path>")
If recognition fails or looks wrong:
- Extract likely title, year, media type, season, and episode range from filenames.
- Call
search_media(title="...", year="...", media_type="movie|tv").
- If several results are plausible, use
ask_user_choice when available, or ask the user directly to choose the correct title/TMDB ID.
- For TV season confusion, use
query_media_detail(tmdb_id=<id>, media_type="tv") before deciding the season number.
Never invent a TMDB/Douban ID. When unsure, ask for confirmation.
4. Check Existing State
Before writing:
- Use
query_library_exists when a precise tmdb_id and media_type are known and duplicate risk matters.
- Use
query_transfer_history(title="<title or path keyword>", status="all") if the file may already have a success or failure record.
- If
transfer_file later returns "已整理过", query transfer history, identify the matching source path, and ask before deleting the stale record.
Only call delete_transfer_history(history_id=<id>) for the exact stale/failed record that blocks the requested source path. Do not delete unrelated successful history.
5. Transfer Through MoviePilot
Use transfer_file with explicit identity whenever possible:
transfer_file(
file_path="<source path>",
storage="local",
media_type="movie|tv",
tmdbid=<tmdb_id>,
season=<season_number_if_tv>
)
Rules:
- For directories, pass a trailing slash in
file_path so the tool treats it as a directory.
- Prefer leaving
target_path, target_storage, and transfer_type empty so configured directory rules apply.
- Set
target_path or transfer_type only when the user explicitly asks or the default directory configuration cannot handle the file.
- For a single movie or a single TV season folder, transfer the folder once with the shared identity.
- For mixed folders, split by media and transfer each file/subfolder separately.
- For episode packs, identify the media once, then reuse
tmdbid, media_type="tv", and the confirmed season for each item.
6. Report Clearly
After each transfer batch, report:
- source path(s) processed;
- recognized media title, type, TMDB/Douban ID, season/episode range when relevant;
- success/failure count;
- any failed message exactly enough for the user to act, such as missing media library directory, unsupported storage, existing history, or no media recognized.
If the result creates failed history records, tell the user they can retry with the history ID or let the agent continue with transfer-failed-retry.
Common Cases
User Gives A Single File
recognize_media(path=...)
- If needed,
search_media(...) and confirm the result.
transfer_file(file_path=..., media_type=..., tmdbid=..., season=...)
User Gives A Season Folder
list_directory(path=...)
- Pick a representative episode and run
recognize_media(path=...).
- Confirm
tmdbid, media_type="tv", and season.
transfer_file(file_path="<folder>/", media_type="tv", tmdbid=<id>, season=<season>)
User Gives A Messy Mixed Folder
list_directory(path=...)
- Group candidates by likely title/year/season.
- Confirm groups before writing if there is more than one media.
- Transfer each group separately; do not run one directory transfer over unrelated media.
Transfer Says The File Was Already Organized
query_transfer_history(title="<title or source path keyword>", status="all")
- Find the exact record with matching
src.
- Ask the user to confirm deletion if the record is stale or failed.
delete_transfer_history(history_id=<id>)
- Retry
transfer_file(...).
Guardrails
- Do not use shell commands, raw database edits, or manual filesystem moves for organization.
- Do not delete transfer history without an exact matching source path and user confirmation.
- Do not use broad download roots as transfer targets unless the user explicitly confirms the scope.
- Do not process unrelated media in one directory transfer.
- Do not override target directories or transfer modes unless necessary.
- Prefer asking one focused question over guessing media identity, season mapping, or destructive cleanup.
