Read and write Markdown as exact text through the CLI

[silveltman]

Markdown and other long text can now reach MCP tools and HTTP APIs directly from UTF-8 files or stdin with --text-file field=path. --raw field writes a result string exactly, preserving indentation, line endings and terminal newlines. Existing JSON input and output remain compatible, and Meet is included in app discovery.

Invalid field paths and conflicting inputs fail before a write. Declared output schemas reject impossible raw selections before execution; if selection fails after a successful request, the error preserves its receipt and identifies the success. HTTP errors retain server details and the actual HTTP status.

Validation: vp run check passes, including 204 tests and the rebuilt committed CLI bundle. The tests protect exact source transfer, safe nested paths, compatibility, stdin errors and failed output selection around writes. The independent final review found no remaining defects; CodeRabbit's accepted stdin error finding is fixed and its thread resolved.

Release after the app's Markdown export and Work notes-version contract are live. Pages Markdown export is a reading projection; updates continue to use typed block content.

📝 Walkthrough

The CLI adds --text-file and --raw options for tool calls and API requests. It preserves exact text input, checks declared schemas before sending requests when they rule out text output, and reports raw extraction failures after successful requests without discarding their results. API errors include HTTP status and preserve response details. Fulldev Meet is added to the app catalog and related documentation.

function propagate unchanged when path is "-"; keep wrapping readFile failures
