    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
    // Get PDF content (auto-extracts text)
    await runAction({
      ActionName: 'File Storage: Get File Content',
      Params: [{
        Name: 'StorageAccount',
        Value: 'Box'
      }, {
        Name: 'ObjectID',
        Value: '347751234567'
      }]
    });
    // Returns: { Format: "text", Content: "extracted text...", ExtractionMethod: "pdf-parse" }

    // Get image content (returns base64)
    await runAction({
      ActionName: 'File Storage: Get File Content',
      Params: [{
        Name: 'StorageAccount',
        Value: 'Google Drive'
      }, {
        Name: 'ObjectName',
        Value: 'screenshots/diagram.png'
      }]
    });
    // Returns: { Format: "image", Content: "base64...", ExtractionMethod: "none" }
