I don't think the level of reliability necessary for a file manager is achievable with vibe coding. This is an area where small bugs can cause immediate and catastrophic data loss.

If you're shopping for a file manager, I recommend avoiding any project that incorporates a significant amount of LLM-generated code. Maybe in theory it could be reviewed as thoroughly as handwritten code; in practice that never happens.

It's not the vibe coding, it's the lack of tests

		And I think human written tests at that. If the LLM is blind to the failure mode X, does it know to reliably write a test to evaluate the behavior of X?

		wow. there are actually no tests here.
