+# Changelog
+
+## 2025-11-29 - 13.1.0 - feat(smartfs)
+Integrate @push.rocks/smartfs and wire SmartFileFactory.nodeFs to return a real SmartFs instance
+
+- Add runtime dependency @push.rocks/smartfs@^1.1.0 to package.json (previous peerDependency removed).
+- Export smartfs from ts/plugins.ts so internal modules can access SmartFs and providers.
+- Implement SmartFileFactory.nodeFs() to instantiate plugins.smartfs.SmartFs with SmartFsProviderNode and return a factory bound to that SmartFs.
+- Enable factory-created SmartFile/StreamFile/VirtualDirectory instances to use the bound SmartFs for filesystem operations (read/write/streams).
+
+## 2025-11-22 - 13.0.1 - fix(smartfile)
+Stream and filesystem integrations: remove fs-extra, switch to fs/promises.rename, add Web WritableStream compatibility, and use smartFs recursive directory methods; update plugins exports and README.
+
+- Remove fs-extra dependency and its types from package.json and stop exporting fsExtra from plugins.
+- Replace fs-extra rename with fs/promises.rename in SmartFile.rename to use native promises API.
+- Add Web WritableStream handling in StreamFile.writeToDisk (convert to Node.js Writable via Writable.fromWeb) and ensure Web ReadableStream conversion in createReadStream.
+- Use smartFs.directory(...).recursive().create() when creating directories and smartFs.directory(path).recursive().list() when listing to ensure recursive behavior.
+- Update README to add Issue Reporting and Security section pointing to community.foss.global for bug/vulnerability reports.
+
+## 2025-11-22 - 13.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(SmartFileFactory)
+Refactor to in-memory file API and introduce SmartFileFactory; delegate filesystem operations to @push.rocks/smartfs; bump to 12.0.0
+
+- Introduce SmartFileFactory as the canonical entry point for creating SmartFile, StreamFile and VirtualDirectory instances.
+- Refactor SmartFile, StreamFile and VirtualDirectory to be in-memory representations and accept an optional SmartFs instance for filesystem operations.
+- Delegate low-level filesystem operations to @push.rocks/smartfs (added as a peerDependency); legacy fs/memory/fsStream/interpreter namespace exports removed/deprecated.
+- Add StreamFile.toSmartFile(), VirtualDirectory.loadFromDisk(), and other convenience methods to work with the new factory/smartFs integration.
+- Update tests to use a MockSmartFs and the factory API; add test assets.
+- Documentation and readme updated with migration instructions and examples showing SmartFileFactory.nodeFs() and SmartFs usage.
+- Bumped package version to 12.0.0 — this is a breaking change; consumers should migrate from legacy namespace exports to the factory + @push.rocks/smartfs workflow.
+
+## 2025-08-18 - 11.2.7 - fix(ci)
+Remove .npmrc containing hard-coded npm registry configuration
+
+- Removed .npmrc which contained 'registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/'
+- Avoids committing environment-specific npm registry configuration; rely on user or CI environment settings instead
+
+## 2025-08-18 - 11.2.6 - fix(fs)
+Improve fs and stream handling, enhance SmartFile/StreamFile, update tests and CI configs
+
+- Fix listFileTree to correctly handle '**/' patterns by running both root and nested patterns and deduplicating results.
+- Enhance waitForFileToBeReady: support directory paths (wait for first file) and improved file-stability checks with timeouts and retries.
+- StreamFile improvements: support Web ReadableStream -> Node Readable conversion, better multi-use buffering, more robust fromUrl/fromBuffer/fromStream implementations, and accurate byte-length computation.
+- SmartFile updates: switch fromUrl to SmartRequest, robust rename (optional on-disk rename), safer read/write paths and consistent Buffer handling for hashing and content edits.
+- fs module tweaks: copy/copySync gained replaceTargetDir option, improved toObjectSync error messages, toReadStream now validates existence, and various synchronous/async API consistency fixes.
+- memory module: consistent async/sync write APIs and smartfileArrayToFs formatting/behavior fixes.
+- fsstream: improved stream processing and SmartReadStream robustness (error handling, read logic and watcher improvements).
+- Tests: reformatted and strengthened tests (more explicit assertions, added tests for '**/*.ts' and '**/*' edge cases, updated imports to tapbundle usage).
+- CI/workflows: updated IMAGE and NPMCI_COMPUTED_REPOURL values and switched npmci package install to @ship.zone/npmci in workflow files.
+- package.json: bumped various dependencies, updated test script (timeout, logfile), added typings/main fields, homepage fix, pnpm overrides and minor metadata fixes.
+- .gitignore: added entries for AI tool folders (.claude/, .serena/).
+- Docs/readme: expanded README with clearer examples, features and TypeScript usage; updated readme hints for listFileTree behavior.
+
+## 2025-05-26 - 11.2.5 - fix(dev)
+
+Update dev dependencies and add local permission settings
+
+- Bump @git.zone/tsbuild from 2.5.2 to 2.6.4
+- Bump @git.zone/tstest from 1.9.0 to 2.2.5
+- Add .claude/settings.local.json to configure permissions for Bash(pnpm test:\*)
+
+## 2025-05-24 - 11.2.4 - fix(config)
+
+Add local permissions configuration for pnpm test commands in .claude/settings.local.json
+
+- Introduced .claude/settings.local.json to allow Bash(pnpm test:\*) permissions
+- Ensured local testing commands have proper execution rights
+
+## 2025-05-21 - 11.2.2 - fix(tests/settings)
+
+Improve test assertions and update local settings permissions
+
+- Refactor StreamFile tests to assert content string type using toBeTypeofString
+- Update file existence tests to use resolves.toBeTrue and resolves.toBeFalse for cleaner promise handling
+- Add .claude/settings.local.json to allow specific Bash permissions for pnpm test commands
+
+## 2025-05-21 - 11.2.1 - fix(fs)
+
+Fix inconsistent glob matching in listFileTree and update test imports and dependency versions for enhanced stability.
+
+- Enhanced listFileTree to support \*\*/ patterns by using dual patterns (root and nested) with deduplication.
+- Updated test imports to use '@git.zone/tstest/tapbundle' for consistency across test files.
+- Bumped dependency versions (@push.rocks/lik, smartpromise, smartrequest, glob) in package.json.
+- Added npm configuration (.npmrc) and local settings for improved test verbosity.
+
+## 2025-01-29 - 11.2.0 - feat(fs)
+
+Enhanced copy method with optional replaceTargetDir option for directory replacement
+
+- Added optional 'replaceTargetDir' option to 'copy' and 'copySync' methods in 'fs.ts'.
+- The 'replaceTargetDir' option allows replacing the target directory if both source and target are directories.
+
+## 2025-01-29 - 11.1.9 - fix(fs)
+
+Fix directory handling in copy and copySync functions
+
+- Ensured existing directories at destination are removed before copying over them in async copy.
+- Added a similar check and handling for synchronous copySync when destination is a directory.
+
+## 2025-01-29 - 11.1.8 - fix(fs)
+
+Fixed copy and copySync functions to ensure they always overwrite files.
+
+- Fixed bug in copy function where files were not being overwritten when they already existed at the destination.
+- Fixed bug in copySync function to ensure files are overwritten to match the async function's behavior.
+
+## 2025-01-29 - 11.1.7 - fix(fs)
+
+Refactor copy and copySync functions to simplify return type
+
+- Changed the return type of fs.copy and fs.copySync from boolean to void.
+- Removed unnecessary promise handling in fs.copy.
+
+## 2025-01-29 - 11.1.6 - fix(fs)
+
+Fix issues with fs file copy functions.

+
+## 2025-01-07 - 11.1.5 - fix(fs)
+
+Improve waitForFileToBeReady function to handle directories and file stabilization
+
+- Enhanced the waitForFileToBeReady to handle directory paths by checking for file existence within directories and waiting for stabilization.
+- Modified the watcher logic to cater to changes when monitoring directories for file appearance.
+- Introduced a helper function to ensure paths exist and another to resolve the first file in directories.
+- Corrected logic for polling and stabilizing files within directories.
+
+## 2025-01-07 - 11.1.4 - fix(fs)

+# SmartFile Implementation Hints
+
+## Major Architectural Change (v12.0.0)
+
+### Overview
+
+SmartFile has been refactored to focus exclusively on **in-memory file representations** (SmartFile, StreamFile, VirtualDirectory). All filesystem operations have been moved to or delegated to `@push.rocks/smartfs`.
+
+### Key Changes
+
+1. **Factory Pattern Introduction**
+   - New `SmartFileFactory` class introduced
+   - Factory is bound to a `SmartFs` instance (from `@push.rocks/smartfs`)
+   - All file instances are created through the factory
+   - Factory methods: `fromFilePath()`, `fromUrl()`, `fromBuffer()`, `fromString()`, etc.
+
+2. **SmartFile, StreamFile, VirtualDirectory**
+   - Now accept optional `smartFs` parameter in constructor
+   - Filesystem operations (write, read, delete) use `smartFs` if available
+   - Fallback to legacy methods if `smartFs` not provided (for backward compatibility)
+   - Static factory methods moved to `SmartFileFactory`
+
+3. **Separation of Concerns**
+   - **SmartFile** = In-memory file representation (path + content buffer)
+   - **StreamFile** = Lazy-loaded streaming file representation
+   - **VirtualDirectory** = Collection of SmartFiles in memory
+   - **SmartFs** (from @push.rocks/smartfs) = Filesystem operations
+
+### Usage Pattern
+
+```typescript
+import { SmartFileFactory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+import { SmartFs, SmartFsProviderNode } from '@push.rocks/smartfs';
+
+// Create factory with SmartFs instance
+const smartFs = new SmartFs(new SmartFsProviderNode());
+const factory = new SmartFileFactory(smartFs);
+
+// Or use default Node.js factory
+const factory = SmartFileFactory.nodeFs();
+
+// Create SmartFile through factory
+const file = await factory.fromFilePath('./data.json');
+await file.write(); // Uses bound smartFs instance
+
+// Create StreamFile
+const stream = await factory.streamFromPath('./large.zip');
+
+// Create VirtualDirectory
+const vdir = await factory.virtualDirectoryFromPath('./src');
+```
+
+### What Belongs Where
+
+**SmartFile/StreamFile/VirtualDirectory (this package)**:
+- ✅ In-memory file representation
+- ✅ Content manipulation (edit, parse, transform)
+- ✅ Loading content FROM sources (factory methods)
+- ✅ Saving content TO destinations (write methods)
+- ✅ Instance metadata (hash, size, mime type)
+- ✅ Collection operations (for VirtualDirectory)
+
+**SmartFs (@push.rocks/smartfs)**:
+- ✅ Filesystem queries (exists, stat)
+- ✅ File operations without content loading (copy, move)
+- ✅ Directory operations (list, create, delete)
+- ✅ Streaming operations (readStream, writeStream)
+- ✅ Provider abstraction (Node.js, memory, S3, etc.)
+
+### VirtualDirectory Collection Methods
+
+VirtualDirectory now has comprehensive collection methods:
+
+**Queries** (operate on in-memory collection):
+- `exists(path)` / `has(path)` - Check if path exists in collection
+- `getFileByPath(path)` - Get SmartFile from collection
+- `listFiles()` - List all SmartFiles
+- `listDirectories()` - List directory paths represented in collection
+- `filter(predicate)` - Filter SmartFiles
+- `map(fn)` - Transform SmartFiles
+- `find(predicate)` - Find SmartFile
+- `size()` - Number of files in collection
+- `isEmpty()` - Check if collection is empty
+
+**Mutations**:
+- `addSmartfiles(files)` - Add files to collection
+- `addSmartfile(file)` - Add single file
+- `removeByPath(path)` - Remove from collection
+- `clear()` - Empty collection
+- `merge(otherVDir)` - Merge another VirtualDirectory
+
+### Backward Compatibility
+
+- Legacy namespace exports (`fs`, `memory`, `fsStream`, `interpreter`) are **deprecated**
+- They remain functional for transition period but marked with `@deprecated`
+- Will be removed in future version
+- Users should migrate to `@push.rocks/smartfs` and `SmartFileFactory`
+
+### Migration Path
+
+**Old (deprecated)**:
+```typescript
+import * as smartfile from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+
+const file = await smartfile.SmartFile.fromFilePath('./file.txt');
+await file.write();
+
+const exists = await smartfile.fs.fileExists('./file.txt');
+await smartfile.fs.copy('./a.txt', './b.txt');
+```
+
+**New (recommended)**:
+```typescript
+import { SmartFileFactory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+import { SmartFs, SmartFsProviderNode } from '@push.rocks/smartfs';
+
+const factory = SmartFileFactory.nodeFs();
+const file = await factory.fromFilePath('./file.txt');
+await file.write();
+
+const smartFs = new SmartFs(new SmartFsProviderNode());
+const exists = await smartFs.file('./file.txt').exists();
+await smartFs.file('./a.txt').copy('./b.txt');
+```
+
+### Testing Considerations
+
+- Tests should use `SmartFileFactory.nodeFs()` or create custom factory with memory provider
+- VirtualDirectory tests can use collection methods without filesystem access
+- Filesystem operations should be tested via `@push.rocks/smartfs`
+
+### Future Plans
+
+- Remove deprecated namespace exports completely
+- Full smartfs integration (remove fallback code)
+- Potentially remove fs-extra, glob dependencies once smartfs is fully integrated
+
+## listFileTree Function Enhancement (ts/fs.ts:367-415)
+
+### Issue Fixed
+
+The `listFileTree` function previously had inconsistent behavior with `**/*.extension` patterns across different systems and glob implementations. Some implementations would miss root-level files when using patterns like `**/*.ts`.
+
+### Solution Implemented
+
+Modified the function to explicitly handle `**/` patterns by:
+
+1. Detecting when a pattern starts with `**/`
+2. Extracting the file pattern after `**/` (e.g., `*.ts` from `**/*.ts`)
+3. Running both the original pattern and the extracted root pattern
+4. Using a Set to deduplicate results and ensure consistent ordering
+
+### Key Benefits
+
+- Guarantees consistent behavior across all systems
+- Ensures both root-level and nested files are found with `**/*` patterns
+- Maintains backward compatibility
+- No performance degradation due to efficient deduplication
+
+### Test Coverage
+
+Added comprehensive tests to verify:
+
+- Both root and nested files are found with `**/*.ts`
+- No duplicate entries in results
+- Edge cases with various file extensions work correctly
+
+This fix ensures tools like `tsbuild check **/*.ts` work reliably across all systems.

+
+## 📚 Quick Start
+
+### Using the Factory
+
+```typescript
+import { SmartFileFactory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+
+// Create factory (uses Node.js filesystem by default)
+const factory = SmartFileFactory.nodeFs();
+
+// Load a file into memory
+const file = await factory.fromFilePath('./config.json');
+
+// Edit content
+await file.editContentAsString(async (content) => {
+  return content.toUpperCase();
+});
+
+// Save back to disk
+await file.write();
+```
+
+### With SmartFs Integration
+
+```typescript
+import { SmartFileFactory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+import { SmartFs, SmartFsProviderNode } from '@push.rocks/smartfs';
+
+// Create SmartFs instance with provider
+const smartFs = new SmartFs(new SmartFsProviderNode());
+
+// Create factory bound to this filesystem
+const factory = new SmartFileFactory(smartFs);
+
+// Now all file operations use the smartfs instance
+const file = await factory.fromFilePath('./data.json');
+await file.write(); // Uses smartfs under the hood
+```
+
+## 🎨 Core Components
+
+### SmartFileFactory
+
+The factory is your entry point for creating all file instances:
+
+```typescript
+import { SmartFileFactory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+
+const factory = SmartFileFactory.nodeFs();
+
+// Create from various sources
+const fileFromPath = await factory.fromFilePath('./data.json');
+const fileFromUrl = await factory.fromUrl('https://example.com/config.json');
+const fileFromBuffer = factory.fromBuffer('./file.txt', Buffer.from('content'));
+const fileFromString = factory.fromString('./file.txt', 'Hello World', 'utf8');
+
+// Create StreamFile instances
+const stream = await factory.streamFromPath('./large-file.zip');
+const streamFromUrl = await factory.streamFromUrl('https://example.com/video.mp4');
+
+// Create VirtualDirectory instances
+const vdir = await factory.virtualDirectoryFromPath('./src');
+const emptyVdir = factory.virtualDirectoryEmpty();
+```
+
+### SmartFile Class
+
+Represents a single file loaded in memory:
+
+```typescript
+// Created via factory
+const file = await factory.fromFilePath('./data.json');
+
+// Content access
+const asString = file.parseContentAsString();
+const asBuffer = file.parseContentAsBuffer();
+
+// Content manipulation
+await file.editContentAsString(async (content) => {
+  const data = JSON.parse(content);
+  data.updated = new Date().toISOString();
+  return JSON.stringify(data, null, 2);
+});
+
+// File operations
+await file.write();                          // Save to original location
+await file.writeToDiskAtPath('./output.json'); // Save to specific path
+await file.writeToDir('./dist');            // Save to directory
+await file.read();                           // Reload from disk
+await file.delete();                         // Delete from disk
+
+// Metadata
+const size = await file.getSize();           // File size in bytes
+const hash = await file.getHash('content');  // SHA256 hash
+const stream = file.getStream();             // Get as Node.js stream
+
+// Path information
+console.log(file.path);                      // Relative path
+console.log(file.absolutePath);              // Absolute path
+console.log(file.parsedPath);                // Parsed path components
+```
+
+### StreamFile Class
+
+Perfect for handling large files without memory overhead:
+
+```typescript
+// Created via factory
+const streamFile = await factory.streamFromPath('./bigfile.zip');
+
+// Or from URL
+const urlStream = await factory.streamFromUrl('https://example.com/large.mp4');
+
+// Or from buffer
+const bufferStream = factory.streamFromBuffer(Buffer.from('content'));
+
+// Write to disk (streams the content)
+await streamFile.writeToDisk('./output/bigfile.zip');
+await streamFile.writeToDir('./output');
+
+// Get content (loads into memory - use carefully!)
+const buffer = await streamFile.getContentAsBuffer();
+const string = await streamFile.getContentAsString('utf8');
+
+// Get as Node.js stream for piping
+const readStream = await streamFile.createReadStream();
+
+// Convert to SmartFile (loads into memory)
+const smartFile = await streamFile.toSmartFile();
+
+// Get file size
+const size = await streamFile.getSize();
+```
+
+### VirtualDirectory Class
+
+Manage collections of SmartFiles in memory:
+
+```typescript
+// Created via factory
+const vdir = await factory.virtualDirectoryFromPath('./src');
+
+// Or create empty
+const emptyVdir = factory.virtualDirectoryEmpty();
+
+// Or from file array
+const files = [file1, file2, file3];
+const vdirFromFiles = factory.virtualDirectoryFromFileArray(files);
+
+// ============================================
+// Collection Queries (in-memory operations)
+// ============================================
+
+// Check existence in collection
+if (vdir.exists('components/Button.tsx')) {
+  console.log('File exists in virtual directory');
+}
+
+// Get file from collection
+const file = await vdir.getFileByPath('utils/helpers.ts');
+
+// List all files
+const allFiles = vdir.listFiles();
+
+// List directory paths represented in collection
+const dirs = vdir.listDirectories();
+
+// Filter files
+const tsFiles = vdir.filter(f => f.path.endsWith('.ts'));
+const largeFiles = vdir.filter(f => f.contentBuffer.length > 10000);
+
+// Map/transform files
+const uppercased = vdir.map(f => {
+  f.contentBuffer = Buffer.from(f.parseContentAsString().toUpperCase());
+  return f;
+});
+
+// Find specific file
+const configFile = vdir.find(f => f.path.includes('config'));
+
+// Collection info
+const fileCount = vdir.size();
+const empty = vdir.isEmpty();
+
+// ============================================
+// Collection Mutations
+// ============================================
+
+// Add files
+vdir.addSmartfile(newFile);
+vdir.addSmartfiles([file1, file2, file3]);
+
+// Remove file
+vdir.removeByPath('old-file.ts');
+
+// Clear all files
+vdir.clear();
+
+// Merge another virtual directory
+vdir.merge(otherVirtualDir);
+
+// ============================================
+// Load/Save (filesystem bridge operations)
+// ============================================
+
+// Save all files to disk
+await vdir.saveToDisk('./dist');
+
+// Reload from disk
+await vdir.loadFromDisk('./src');
+
+// Work with subdirectories
+const subVdir = await vdir.shiftToSubdirectory('components');
+await vdir.addVirtualDirectory(otherVdir, 'lib');
+```
+
+## 🔄 Integration with SmartFs
+
+For filesystem operations beyond loading/saving content, use [@push.rocks/smartfs](https://code.foss.global/push.rocks/smartfs):
+
+```typescript
+import { SmartFileFactory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+import { SmartFs, SmartFsProviderNode } from '@push.rocks/smartfs';
+
+const smartFs = new SmartFs(new SmartFsProviderNode());
+const factory = new SmartFileFactory(smartFs);
+
+// Use smartfile for content manipulation
+const file = await factory.fromFilePath('./config.json');
+await file.editContentAsString(async (s) => s.toUpperCase());
+await file.write();
+
+// Use smartfs for filesystem operations
+const exists = await smartFs.file('./config.json').exists();
+await smartFs.file('./config.json').copy('./config.backup.json');
+const stats = await smartFs.file('./config.json').stat();
+
+// List directory with smartfs
+const entries = await smartFs.directory('./src').list();
+```
+
+## 🌟 Common Use Cases
+
+### Configuration File Management
+
+```typescript
+const factory = SmartFileFactory.nodeFs();
+
+// Load, modify, and save config
+const config = await factory.fromFilePath('./package.json');
+await config.editContentAsString(async (content) => {
+  const pkg = JSON.parse(content);
+  pkg.version = '2.0.0';
+  return JSON.stringify(pkg, null, 2);
+});
+await config.write();
+```
+
+### Batch File Processing
+
+```typescript
+const factory = SmartFileFactory.nodeFs();
+
+// Load directory into virtual collection
+const vdir = await factory.virtualDirectoryFromPath('./content');
+
+// Process all markdown files
+const mdFiles = vdir.filter(f => f.path.endsWith('.md'));
+for (const file of mdFiles.listFiles()) {
+  await file.editContentAsString(async (content) => {
+    // Add frontmatter, transform links, etc.
+    return `---\nprocessed: true\n---\n\n${content}`;
+  });
+}
+
+// Save processed files
+await vdir.saveToDisk('./dist/content');
+```
+
+### Download and Process Remote Files
+
+```typescript
+const factory = SmartFileFactory.nodeFs();
+
+// Fetch from URL
+const remoteFile = await factory.fromUrl('https://api.example.com/data.json');
+
+// Process content
+await remoteFile.editContentAsString(async (content) => {
+  const data = JSON.parse(content);
+  // Transform data
+  return JSON.stringify(data.results, null, 2);
+});
+
+// Save locally
+await remoteFile.writeToDiskAtPath('./cache/data.json');
+```
+
+### Large File Streaming
+
+```typescript
+const factory = SmartFileFactory.nodeFs();
+
+// Download large file as stream
+const largeFile = await factory.streamFromUrl('https://example.com/large-dataset.csv');
+
+// Save to disk (streams, doesn't load all into memory)
+await largeFile.writeToDisk('./data/dataset.csv');
+
+// Or get size without downloading entire file
+const size = await largeFile.getSize();
+console.log(`File size: ${size} bytes`);
+```
+
+### Virtual File System for Testing
+
+```typescript
+import { SmartFileFactory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+import { SmartFs, SmartFsProviderMemory } from '@push.rocks/smartfs';
+
+// Use in-memory filesystem for tests
+const memoryFs = new SmartFs(new SmartFsProviderMemory());
+const factory = new SmartFileFactory(memoryFs);
+
+// Create virtual files
+const testFile = factory.fromString('test.txt', 'test content');
+await testFile.write(); // Writes to in-memory filesystem
+
+// Test your code without touching real filesystem
+```
+

+## 🔧 TypeScript Support
+
+Full TypeScript support with comprehensive type definitions:
+
+```typescript
+import type { SmartFile, StreamFile, VirtualDirectory, SmartFileFactory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+
+const processFile = async (file: SmartFile): Promise<void> => {
+  const content = file.parseContentAsString();
+  // TypeScript knows content is string
+};
+```
+
+## 📦 Backward Compatibility
+
+Version 12.0.0 introduces the factory pattern. Legacy exports are deprecated but still functional:
+
+```typescript
+// ⚠️ Deprecated (still works, but will be removed)
+import * as smartfile from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+const file = await smartfile.SmartFile.fromFilePath('./file.txt');
+await smartfile.fs.copy('./a.txt', './b.txt');
+
+// ✅ Recommended (new factory pattern)
+import { SmartFileFactory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+const factory = SmartFileFactory.nodeFs();
+const file = await factory.fromFilePath('./file.txt');
+
+// For filesystem operations, use smartfs:
+import { SmartFs, SmartFsProviderNode } from '@push.rocks/smartfs';
+const smartFs = new SmartFs(new SmartFsProviderNode());
+await smartFs.file('./a.txt').copy('./b.txt');
+```
