💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with Pyvalve
Create a real-time antivirus scanning tool using the Pyvalve package in Python. This tool will serve as a local file scanner and monitor for any new files being added to a specified directory, performing on-the-fly virus detection using ClamAV through Pyvalve's asyncio capabilities. The application should have the following features:

1. Directory Monitoring: Set up a watch on a user-defined directory where the tool will continuously monitor for any new files added.
2. Asynchronous Scanning: Utilize Pyvalve's async functionality to scan files as they are detected without blocking the main thread, ensuring the tool remains responsive.
3. Real-Time Alerts: Implement an alert system that notifies users via email or console output if a virus is found in a scanned file.
4. User Interface: Develop a simple command-line interface for setting up the initial configuration and viewing results.
5. Configuration File: Allow users to specify settings such as monitored directories, email notification addresses, and scanning intervals through a configuration file.
6. Logging: Keep logs of all scanned files and their statuses for auditing purposes.
7. Graceful Shutdown: Ensure the application can be stopped gracefully, saving any ongoing scans and closing connections properly.

Utilize Pyvalve by integrating it into your codebase to handle the communication with the ClamAV server asynchronously. This includes sending file paths for scanning, receiving scan results, and handling any errors that might occur during the scanning process. Remember to leverage Python's asyncio library alongside Pyvalve for efficient asynchronous operations.
