Conversation
…nterpreter.ts Added a image mime type check with isImageMimeType that will point images to parseImage. Added parseImage function that uses Paddle to OCR parse images. Added ocrImageWithTesseract function to use Tesseract as a fallback.
Added support for jpg and png support in comments and messaging in storage.ts.
Replaced the hardcoded allowedMimeTypes array with normalizeDocumentMimeType to match storage.ts exactly.
In addition to the image support, also fixed stale strings that were missing XLSX and CSV support.
Add DOCX, JPEG (plus the image/jpg alternate form), and PNG to the SDK's document upload allow-list, so the SDK endpoints accept the same formats as the document robots themselves. Keeps the explicit MIME-type list rather than delegating to normalizeDocumentMimeType, so the SDK continues to match on the client-supplied MIME type only, with no filename-extension fallback.

A shared upload middleware returns HTTP 400 responses for invalid and oversized uploads. Image inputs use PaddleOCR with Tesseract fallback, temporary-file cleanup, table extraction, and image metadata. Markdown and HTML output omit page headings for images.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Correct the OCR scope.
DOCX, XLSX, and CSV use native parsers. They do not use OCR. State that OCR handles scanned PDFs and JPG or PNG images. List DOCX, XLSX, and CSV as parsed formats.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Reject high-pixel images before OCR.
The 10 MB upload limit does not limit decoded image dimensions. A blank 10,000 × 10,000 JPEG can fit below that limit and produce no PaddleOCR text. The Tesseract fallback then reaches preprocessPageImage, which allocates RGBA, Float32Array, and two Float64Array buffers for every pixel. This requires multiple gigabytes of memory and can terminate the server process.
Read image dimensions from trusted headers before OCR. Reject or downscale images above a fixed pixel limit.

Fixed. Also addressed CodeRabbit's comment about the filesystem path not being a string literal.

@jessebaugh - can you tackle documenting this function please.
This fix addresses the edge case of an image with a large pixel count that is still under the 10 MB upload limit. For example, a 10000x10000 pixel JPEG compresses well under 10 MB but needs >2 GB across the per-pixel buffers in preprocessPageImage. Typed arrays are backed by external memory rather than V8's old space, so --max-old-space-size does not cap them and the process can be OOM-killed instead of failing gracefully. Blank images are the most egregious case: PaddleOCR bounds its own input via maxSideLength so an image only reaches this code through the Tesseract fallback which is triggered by empty PaddleOCR output. Read dimensions from the header with sharp (no full decode) and downscale above 25 MP before any allocation. Downscaling rather than rejecting keeps high-DPI scans working, since OCR gains nothing beyond roughly 300 DPI. This also covers the PDF path, where ocrPDF rasterizes pages at 4x and a large-format page could hit the same ceiling.
Updated the document extraction and parsing capabilities to specify native parsers for certain document types and clarified OCR support for scanned images.

Summary
Adds image (JPG/PNG) support to the document robots. Both doc-extract and doc-parse accept images and run them through the OCR pipeline already used for scanned PDFs. An image is treated as a single-page scanned document with no text layer.
Decisions Made
Hooked into
parseDocument()rather than each entry point. Because that dispatcher backsparse(),extractText(), andextractData(), a single branch covers parse, extract, and the SDK.Reused the existing OCR pipeline as-is.
parseImage()writes the upload to a temp file, runs script detection, then PaddleOCR, falling back to Tesseract if PaddleOCR throws or returns nothing. Both engines and their helpers already existed for the scanned-PDF path so nothing new was integrated.Images are treated as single-page documents (
pageCount: 1), and page headers are omitted from image markdown/HTML output.Link extraction now recovers
www.and bare-domain URLs, which OCR'd text often contains without a scheme. It excludes email addresses: the initial version matched the domain half ofjane.doe@email.comand emittedhttps://email.com, so a lookbehind now restricts matches to token boundaries. Emails are not returned asmailto:links, since that would change thelinksoutput for every document type. This can be added if desired though.sdk.tskeeps its hardcoded MIME list. We tried delegating tonormalizeDocumentMimeType()for consistency withstorage.ts, but that adds a filename-extension fallback which would start accepting files whose MIME type is unrecognized. Reverted to keep strict MIME-only matching on the SDK path.Fixed stale format strings we touched. Several messages still said "PDF only" or "PDF or DOCX" after XLSX/CSV landed, and
RobotEditPage'sacceptwas missing XLSX/CSV too. We brought them in line.Content/magic-byte validation is out of scope. Neither this nor the existing filters verify file contents, so a renamed file passes. We'd be happy to follow up on this if requested.
