Moved large file sets reliably using an input list, with progress reporting and restartable execution.

The situation
A large file migration needed to run on a server with predictable outcomes, without the usual “it worked on my machine” chaos.
What I delivered
- Bulk move/copy workflow driven from an explicit file list
- Progress reporting and error categorization
- Restartable logic: rerun safely after partial completion
- Guardrails to avoid overwrites or bad paths
Outcome
- Reduced manual babysitting (and surprise failures)
- Improved visibility with a clear status output
- Repeatable process for future transfers
