Add support for uploading Markdown, Text, Word (.docx), CSV, Excel (.xlsx),
PDF, and PowerPoint (.pptx) files in addition to existing JPEG/PNG image
uploads in the spec creation and project expansion chat interfaces.
Backend changes:
- New server/utils/document_extraction.py: in-memory text extraction for all
document formats using python-docx, openpyxl, PyPDF2, python-pptx (no disk
persistence)
- Rename ImageAttachment to FileAttachment across schemas, routers, and
chat session services
- Add build_attachment_content_blocks() helper in chat_constants.py to route
images as image content blocks and documents as extracted text blocks
- Separate size limits: 5MB for images, 20MB for documents
- Handle extraction errors (corrupt files, encrypted PDFs) gracefully
Frontend changes:
- Widen accepted MIME types and file extensions in both chat components
- Add resolveMimeType() fallback for browsers that don't set MIME on .md files
- Document attachments display with FileText icon instead of image thumbnail
- ChatMessage renders documents as compact pills with filename and size
- Update help text from "attach images" to "attach files"
Dependencies added: python-docx, openpyxl, PyPDF2, python-pptx

The Claude CLI sends `rate_limit_event` messages that the SDK's
`parse_message()` doesn't recognize, raising `MessageParseError` and
crashing all three chat session types (spec, assistant, expand).
Changes:
- Bump claude-agent-sdk minimum from 0.1.0 to 0.1.39
- Add `check_rate_limit_error()` helper in chat_constants.py that
detects rate limits from both MessageParseError data payloads and
error message text patterns
- Wrap `receive_response()` loops in all three `_query_claude()` methods
with retry-on-rate-limit logic (up to 3 retries with backoff)
- Gracefully log and skip non-rate-limit MessageParseError instead of
crashing the session
- Add `rate_limited` message type to frontend TypeScript types and
handle it in useSpecChat, useAssistantChat, useExpandChat hooks to
show "Rate limited. Retrying in Xs..." system messages

Add a Node.js CLI wrapper that allows installing AutoForge globally via
`npm install -g autoforge-ai` and running it with a single `autoforge`
command. The CLI handles Python detection, venv management, config
loading, and uvicorn server lifecycle automatically.
New files:
- package.json: npm package config with bin entry, files whitelist,
and prepublishOnly script that builds the UI
- bin/autoforge.js: thin entry point that imports lib/cli.js
- lib/cli.js: main CLI module (~790 lines) with cross-platform Python
3.11+ detection, composite venv marker for smart invalidation
(requirements hash + Python version + path), .env config management
at ~/.autoforge/.env, server startup with PID file and port detection,
and signal handling with process tree cleanup
- requirements-prod.txt: runtime-only deps (excludes ruff, mypy, pytest)
- .npmignore: excludes dev files, tests, __pycache__, UI source
Modified files:
- ui/package.json: rename to autoforge-ui to avoid confusion with root
- .gitignore: add *.tgz for npm pack output
- README.md: add npm install as primary quick start method, document
CLI commands, add Ollama/Vertex AI config sections, new troubleshooting
entries for Python/venv issues
- GettingStarted.tsx: add Installation, Quick Start, and CLI Commands
sections to in-app documentation with command reference table
- docsData.ts: add installation and cli-commands sidebar entries
Published as autoforge-ai@0.1.0 on npm.
