Symbolic Link Manager is a desktop filesystem link manager, dangling-target auditor, circular-loop detector, and batch symlink retargeting utility for Linux. An independent graphical alternative inspired by directory junction and POSIX ln/readlink utilities, it inspects directory trees to map file and directory symbolic links, hop-by-hop resolution chains, and target validity.

Key Features:

• Symbolic Link Tree Auditor & Loop Detector: Scans user folders, mounted media, and system directories (/usr/bin, /etc/alternatives, /usr/lib) to classify Valid Directory Links, Valid File Links, Relative vs Absolute links, Dangling or Broken targets, and Circular Symlink Loops with hop-by-hop chain tracing.
• POSIX Symlink Creator: Creates verified relative or absolute file and directory symbolic links inside user directories via os.symlink() with atomic replacement.
• Safe Batch Prefix Retargeter & Rel/Abs Converter: Previews and atomically rewrites symlink target prefixes or converts between relative and absolute targets across user folders when directories move.
• Link Health Telemetry & Export: Visualizes valid, broken, and multi-hop chain distributions and exports full symlink inventories to CSV and JSON.
