Module: RailsAiContext::SafeFile

Defined in:
lib/rails_ai_context/safe_file.rb

Overview

Safe file reading with size limits and error handling. Returns String on success, nil on any failure (missing, too large, unreadable). Designed as a drop-in replacement for unguarded File.read calls across introspectors and tools where nil is already handled.
