Finder Color Walk

About

Finder Color Walk is a specialized utility for macOS that organizes and identifies files visually by assigning Finder labels based on a deterministic random walk algorithm. Leveraging the Gay.jl SplitMix64 generator, it maps file metadata to specific hues and GF(3) trits, ensuring that file colorization is reproducible and mathematically grounded. This skill is ideal for developers and power users who want a unique, algorithmic approach to visual file management, directory traversal, and workspace aesthetics using Claude Code.

Key Features

• Automated macOS Finder label assignment via AppleScript integration
• GF(3) trit conservation verification for mathematical consistency
• Reproducible color results using SplitMix64 seed-based generation
• Multi-language support with Python and Babashka (Clojure) implementations
• 2 GitHub stars
• Deterministic random walk through local file directories

Use Cases

• Algorithmic visual organization of large macOS project directories
• Automating workspace aesthetics based on mathematical color theory and GF(3) principles
• Generating reproducible visual states for file system audits
