Short answer

Can I manage Tencent COS files with my AI?

Yes. You can list contents, move files between paths, and delete objects using text commands. This allows you to restructure your storage without using the Tencent console. Here is how it works.

The outcomes

Where your files end up

Your AI handles the file movements based on your instructions.

LISTING

Clear file views

The AI scans your buckets to show you exactly what is inside. You get a clean list of your current directory structure.

MOVING

Organized paths

The AI copies files to new locations and removes the old ones. This lets you reorganize large directories instantly.

CLEANUP

Empty storage

You can tell your AI to wipe specific files or folders. It executes the deletion immediately.

HUMAN

Final control

You decide which files are safe to move or delete. The AI only acts on the specific paths you confirm.

The workflow

What your AI does when the command arrives.

The AI translates your intent into specific storage operations.

  1. Scan buckets

    The AI looks at your root directories to find the files you mentioned.

    list_root_objects

  2. Find objects

    It identifies the specific files within a folder that match your request.

    list_objects

  3. Relocate files

    The AI copies the object to a new path to change its location.

    copy_object

  4. Remove data

    The AI deletes the original or unwanted files from the bucket.

    delete_object
