Process New Files

On Folder Change

  1. A direct item in ~/Downloads is Added.

Run Script and Show Result

  1. Run Shell Script using printf '%s' "$1" with Item Path, timeout 30 seconds, and stop this flow if unsuccessful
  2. Show a notification titled Process New Files with message Process New Files ran successfully., and play sound

How this Rule works

The folder Trigger passes the item path as the first script input. The supplied example prints that input and does not modify the file; select a folder and write your own script for additional processing.

Configure and try it

Import the Rule, review its Trigger and Actions, and adjust the settings described above before enabling it. Test the result in a safe, temporary context.

Requirements and limits

Folder monitoring and Run Shell Script require Pro. Review and test any replacement script on disposable files. The notification follows successful script execution, not independent verification of a file transformation.
