Will this actually move stuff around? I'd prefer that it mounted in another directory, giving me an organized view of my files but not actually moving them.
No— you have to explicitly checkmark it for the change to happen. We saw the famous OpenInterpreter tweet where the agent deleted every file on someone’s computer. We wanted to avoid that
Hmm or just make it produce symbolic links by default, and then if you want, allow you to "commit" changes, which would actually move these files. Any downsides to this?
Could also have integrity checks that total number of files and their attributes didn't change after the commit
