Perminator helps you understand file permissions without touching the files themselves. Build and copy a POSIX mode, or audit a folder to see ownership, ACLs, flags, concerns, and every authorization gate.
What it does
Build a mode without mental arithmetic
Toggle permissions and special bits, enter octal directly, and copy the result from a compact Scratch window.
Audit the whole selected tree
See permissions, ownership, direct concerns, and affected descendants across a folder hierarchy you choose.
Follow every access gate
Trace traversal and the requested operation through POSIX rules, ACLs, sticky directories, flags, links, and mount state.
Preview, then decide
Compare a proposed chmod mode with the captured snapshot and copy a reviewable command. Perminator never runs it.
