Command line (src/Filee.Cli, published next to Filee.exe as filee-cli.exe; the installer can put the "filee" command, cli\filee.cmd, on PATH): - filee convert <files, wildcards, folders> --to <format> | --preset <id or name>, with -o, --recursive, --quality, --overwrite/--skip, --json for scripts, and exit codes (0 ok, 1 some failed, 2 usage, 3 nothing). - filee watch <folder>, filee formats [<format>], filee presets, help, version. - Same engines, presets and engine order as the app (CliHost mirrors AppHost). Watch folders (Settings → Watch folders, and filee watch): - FolderWatcher (Filee.Core) converts files that land in a folder once they have settled and open without sharing, so downloads and copies in progress wait; temporary files, unknown formats and the output and originals folders are ignored. Per rule: preset, subfolders, output folder (default <folder>\converted), and whether originals stay or move to <folder>\originals (then waiting files are converted at start). - The tray app runs one watcher per enabled rule (WatchFolderService); conversions show in the toast and history like any other. Tests: FolderWatcherTests (settling, files still being written or held open, ignored files, moving originals, missing folder), Filee.Cli.Tests (conversion, JSON, folders, failures, argument errors, a live watch), a render test of the new page.

General settings get a "Conversion history" card: "Don't keep a history of recent conversions" stops recording finished conversions, and "Clear history" empties it. Version 1.3.0. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
