Details

File compression and decompression utility that handles zip and gzip formats for archives up to 10MB in size. This function supports two primary actions: compress and decompress, allowing users to bundle multiple files into a single zip archive or compress individual files using gzip, as well as extract contents from existing archives. For zip compression, users provide an array of files with filenames and base64-encoded content, supporting up to 200 files per archive with built-in path traversal protection for security. For gzip operations, users supply a single base64-encoded input along with an optional filename. Decompression accepts archives via base64 encoding or cloud storage file ID, automatically extracting all contents and optionally returning each file's base64 data inline for immediate processing. Extracted files and generated archives are stored in cloud storage with secure signed URLs for convenient access, and users can toggle the include_contents option to receive base64 output directly in the response. With automatic size validation and budget-based access controls, the Archive Compressor provides a reliable solution for standard file bundling and extraction workflows within agent pipelines.

Use Cases

Bundling multiple generated reports or documents into a single downloadable zip file, extracting uploaded zip archives to process individual files in automated workflows, compressing JSON or CSV data exports for efficient storage and transfer, unpacking user-submitted archives to validate and scan contained files, creating backup bundles of configuration files or logs for archival, decompressing gzipped API responses or data feeds for parsing, packaging multi-file code outputs or assets for delivery to end users, reducing payload sizes for base64 data transfers between pipeline stages, extracting email attachments from compressed formats for content analysis, preparing batched file uploads by compressing multiple assets into a single archive for downstream systems
