On VisionOS, can use my kitchen as a virtual desktop at the file level? Like putting an icon representing the Jenkins report in the sink and a icon for an mp3 on the counter?

Based on the information provided, VisionOS does not explicitly support using your kitchen or any physical space as a virtual desktop at the file level, such as placing an icon representing a Jenkins report in the sink and an icon for an MP3 on the counter. VisionOS focuses on immersive experiences and spatial computing, but the specific use case of organizing files in a physical space like a kitchen is not mentioned.
However, VisionOS does offer various capabilities for spatial computing and immersive experiences. For example, it allows for the automatic positioning of windows and volumes in space, and it uses features like scene understanding and head position to place content effectively (Design interactive experiences for visionOS). Additionally, VisionOS supports anchoring objects on surfaces in your surroundings and even detecting movement across rooms (Platforms State of the Union).
