tomevault-io archive-file-triage
Use local file and archive tools for safe triage of provided archives, unknown files, evidence bundles, source packages, firmware packages, and extracted artifacts.
Help First
Before constructing commands, use installed help or version output as the source of truth:
file --help
7z
unzip -h
Usage Rules
- Work only on explicitly provided files or task-scoped outputs.
- Identify file type and size before extraction.
- Extract only into a task-scoped output directory.
- Preserve original files and record hashes when identity matters.
- Prefer listing archive contents before extraction.
- Do not execute extracted content.
- Watch for path traversal, absolute paths, symlinks, excessive file counts, nested archives, and unexpectedly large expansion.
- Save large listings and extraction logs to files rather than streaming them into the conversation.
Output
Report the input path, type, size, hashes when relevant, command used, output directory, notable extracted paths, suspicious archive behavior, and limitations.
