# File System Specification

**Version**: v1.2.3 | **Status**: Active | **Last Updated**: March 2026

## Overview

Provides a unified interface for filesystem operations including file CRUD, directory management, searching, and metadata retrieval. Abstracts platform-specific filesystem details behind a consistent API.

## Functional Requirements

1. Read file contents with size and metadata reporting
2. List directory entries with optional recursive traversal
3. Unified FileSystemManager interface for cross-platform file operations


## Interface

```python
from codomyrmex.file_system import FileSystemManager

fs = FileSystemManager()
content = fs.read_file("/path/to/file.txt")
entries = fs.list_dir("/path/to/dir", recursive=True)
```

## Exports

FileSystemManager, create_file_system_manager
