Can my AI agent print zlib Compressed Data?
Yes. Install the Filestar CLI with npm install -g filestar and your agent can run filestarcli -i file.dat -c "print" on your computer, so your files stay on it.
A raw zlib (RFC 1950) compressed stream: a 0x78 header byte (commonly 78 9C), a deflate body and an Adler-32 checksum at the end. Filestar inflates the stream and then converts whatever the decompressed data turns out to be - often an image or a document.
