Stop retyping the cataloging checklist.

For librarians maintaining local metadata guidelines

Package your metadata review method as a skill and keep it in the project. The agent loads it when the records need it, edits the files under your approval, and a restore tells you what would change before it changes it.

The Metadata Desk

What is in it

  • Cataloging skills that load on demand
  • Readable project notes for local rules and exceptions
  • A version of every metadata file edit
  • A restore that stops if two file names would collapse into one on your Mac
  • Command-line restore that previews first and applies only with --yes

Same work, different week

Now

The same review checklist gets pasted at the top of every prompt, and the notes that explain a local cataloging rule are in a different place from the records.

With Bandicot

Your method lives in the project as a skill and your rules live in readable notes. Every metadata edit is a version, and a very large collection of files is fine.

Three steps to a first result

Add a review skill to the metadata project.

  1. Say what the job is

    Keep metadata review methods reusable and file edits inspectable.

    catalog-method/
  2. It works, you stay in charge

    When work can change files or systems, Bandicot makes the decision visible before the effect lands.

  3. Take the result or undo the run

    Every changed file is recorded, and undoing a run puts its files back with one click.

What it takes to begin

No pasting the same cataloging checklist into every prompt.

  • A Mac

    Bandicot is a Mac app. The work happens in your folders, on your machine.

  • A folder

    Keep files, context, plans and decisions with the project instead of losing them in a disposable chat.

    catalog-method/
  • A model

    A local model, an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, or a hosted provider you sign in to. The provider bills you directly.

Free

For one person on your Mac. Every plan has every capability.

What a session leaves behind

Skills package your method while tools remain under approvals, and a Versions project holds a very large number of files.

Keep cataloging methods close to the metadata review.

Your method lives in the project as a skill and your rules live in readable notes. Every metadata edit is a version, and a very large collection of files is fine.

A chat box, and then this

A chat box answers. Bandicot does the work in your folders, asks before it writes, and keeps a version of every change.

  • In a chat boxA model and a text box, with no gate before a write.

    In BandicotA trusted harness around the modelBandicot gives every agent a project, tools, a session that survives restarts, approvals, and a clear place to stop.

  • In a chat boxA conversation. The files stay wherever you copied them from.

    In BandicotProjects that hold the workKeep files, context, plans, and decisions with the project instead of losing them in a disposable chat.

  • In a chat boxClose the tab and the thread is somewhere in a list.

    In BandicotDurable work sessionsClose the window, restart, or pick up from another of your Macs without turning the work into a brand-new conversation.

  • In a chat boxIt suggests an edit and you apply it yourself, so there is no gate to read.

    In BandicotA human gate for writesWhen work can change files or systems, Bandicot makes the decision visible before the effect lands.
