This was an exploration I did with Claude Code. Not for merging; it has all the usual AI overconfidence. But it might be useful for exploring whether we might want to make a change like this.

  • Replace Python FastAPI backend with Next.js API routes
  • Migrate OpenAI integration from Python to TypeScript
  • Create 7 API endpoints with full backward compatibility
  • Implement SSE streaming for chat
  • Add Office.js integration with taskpane layout
  • Create standalone editor with study mode support
  • Add comprehensive documentation (2,400+ lines)
  • Include Docker deployment configuration
  • Maintain 100% API compatibility with Python backend
  • Preserve JSONL logging format

Files created:

  • 7 API routes (get_suggestion, chat, reflections, log, logs_poll, download_logs, ping)
  • 6 frontend pages (taskpane, editor, popup, commands, landing)
  • 7 library utilities (openai, prompts, types, logger, wordEditorAPI, atoms, contexts)
  • 6 documentation files (README, MIGRATION_GUIDE, COMPARISON, QUICKSTART, ARCHITECTURE, SUMMARY)
  • 8 configuration files (package.json, tsconfig, next.config, tailwind, etc.)
  • 6 deployment files (Dockerfile, docker-compose, manifest.xml, etc.)
