Class GetFileContentAction

Smart file content retrieval action that automatically handles content extraction based on file type. Returns LLM-ready content (text for documents, base64 for images).

This action combines file download with intelligent content extraction:

• Text formats (txt, md, html, json, csv) → Returns plain text
• Images (png, jpg, gif, webp) → Returns base64 for LLM vision
• PDFs → Extracts text using pdf-parse
• Excel files → Converts to structured JSON/CSV text
• Word documents → Extracts text using mammoth
• Binary files → Returns base64 with warning
