Internals

• Uses notify to monitor file system changes.
• Uses tokio for async event handling.
• Gracefully handles empty files to prevent unnecessary execution.
• Uses a channel (tokio::sync::mpsc::channel) to process events efficiently.
• Executes .redis files using a shell command (sh -c "cat filename | redis-cli").
