Archive and reorganize local photo libraries with photo-cli
Use photo-cli when an agent needs to normalize a local photo archive by reading capture metadata, reverse geocoding locations, and rebuilding a cleaner folder structure without moving into a hosted photo platform.

Best for: large local photo collections that need metadata-driven cleanup, copy, or archive passes before manual review or import into another system.
What this skill actually does
photo-cli is a filesystem-first photo organizer. It extracts capture time and location metadata, supports reverse geocoding, and can archive or copy media into a new folder structure with consistent naming strategies. That gives agents a concrete library-normalization job with a visible output tree.
When to invoke it
Invoke this skill when you want an agent to reorganize an existing media library on disk, preserve originals, and produce a cleaner archive layout before downstream cataloging or backup.
Scope boundary
This is not a generic photo product listing. The skill boundary is a local archive transformation pass: read metadata from files, choose an organization strategy, and write a reorganized destination tree plus local metadata records.
Install notes
- Install photo-cli from its documented package, container, or release method.
- Point it at the source library and choose the archive or copy mode.
- Run the archive workflow to build the reorganized output folder.
