## 🛡 How It Works

1. **Scanning**: The tool identifies all files in your target directory.
2. **Analysis**: It checks the file extension against a database of categories.
3. **Execution**: It safely moves files into categorized subfolders (creating them if they don't exist).
4. **Cleanup**: Empty category folders are removed when you use the `--revert` command.
