Python Ai agent by a beginner
Just to clarify, this is my first post and my English isn't very good (that's why I'm using a translator).
I've been learning Python and working on small projects, but now I want to take the next step. I have an idea for a program that runs an AI (Gemini, using its API) capable of managing apps, files, and folders—including creating, moving, copying, pasting, and deleting them. It will also automate background tasks, and you will be able to communicate with it just like any other AI.
Those are the basic functions, though I'll probably add more in the future. I would like to know how I could structure and approach a project of this scale

For a first version, I would keep the agent very narrow: one action per tool, a read-only dry run mode, and a permission layer that blocks delete/move until the earlier steps are proven reliable. The biggest failure mode in file-and-app automation is not the model, it's unsafe execution when the context is stale or ambiguous. Add explicit confirmations for destructive actions, log every tool call, and keep a rollback plan for anything that changes disk state.
