Apparently I'm not up to date. I've been impressed by some things and turned off by others. But I haven't seen any workflows or setups that enabled access to my file system. How is that accomplished, and are there any safeguards around it?

You're looking for an MCP server, which is the standard way to hook things into chatbots now, and safeguards would depend on the particular server.
