Development Week: October 26 - November 1, 2025

Summary

Implemented FastAPI server infrastructure with web-based chat interface, bracket notation for non-identifier field names, enhanced PDF form filling capabilities, and upgraded Python logging across the codebase.

The week focused on server-side implementation for web-based workflows, improving field name flexibility across both implementations, and refining PDF form capabilities to support the ultimate goal of converting paper forms into completed PDFs.
