Description

Filesystem changes can be monitored by legacy Python 2 programs through Linux inotify. This module helps tools react to file creation, modification, deletion, and movement events.

It can trigger application behavior based on local file changes. Review watched paths and actions carefully, especially where untrusted files can appear.
