This module provides a Drush command to clean up existing filenames in your Drupal site, making them consistent and safe. It's particularly helpful for files uploaded before Drupal's built-in filename sanitization was active, allowing you to apply sanitization rules to your legacy files. The tool offers a dry-run option for previewing changes and handles potential conflicts and errors gracefully.
