+# List Largest Files in Directory
+
+This documentation provides details on how to use a Rundeck job to list the largest files by file size in a specified directory and its subdirectories. This job is useful for identifying large files that may be consuming significant disk space.
+
+## Job Description
+
+This job will:
+- List the largest files by file size in the current directory and its subdirectories.
+
+### Assumptions
+
+- The job assumes the node is a Linux endpoint with `find`, `du`, `sort`, and `head` installed.
+- The default start directory is the Runner Execution folder or the home folder of the authenticated user on remote nodes.
+
+### Notes
+
+- No nodes are selected by default. Change Target Nodes and select the endpoint to run against.
+- The job can **take a long time to run** if the directory has a lot of files in it.
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Job Options
+
+- **Start Directory:** The path where the scan will start. The default is the current execution directory (`.`).
+- **Number of Results:** Choose how many results should be returned in the list. Some dropdown options are provided, but any number can be specified.
