dropthejase rebuilds Louis on AWS's agent runtime

The fork swaps upstream's straightforward LLM-plus-tools setup for a full agent stack running on Amazon's Bedrock AgentCore.

draftinginfrastructure

dropthejase has carved out a dedicated agent workspace inside Louis and given it a real toolbox: read, find, list and fetch documents; generate Word files; edit documents with proper tracked changes; replicate documents; and browse workflows. The pieces share a citations library and document-context builders, so answers can point back to the source rather than float free.

The plumbing is just as deliberate. The agent runs on Bedrock AgentCore (AWS's hosted runtime for tool-using agents), authenticates users from their login token, hooks into a credits system, and has been migrated off Supabase onto Aurora - Amazon's managed Postgres - with a locked-down execution role for logging and model access. The tool definitions and citations library are the parts most easily lifted into other forks; the runtime wiring only matters if you're going all-in on AWS.

So what Worth a look for legal-tech teams weighing whether to build their drafting assistant as a bespoke LLM caller or lean on a cloud vendor's agent platform.

`7024448a`	refactor(agent): extract userId from JWT, remove chat_messages write, remove unused body fields	Jason Lee	2026-05-07	↗ GitHub
Extracts userId from Bearer JWT (sub claim) instead of trusting the POST body, returns 401 if missing. Removes the assistant chat_messages insert (frontend will own that write). Drops userId and messages from the body type.
`3d61162e`	feat(agent): wire real tracked-change edits in edit_document tool	Jason Lee	2026-05-07	↗ GitHub
commit body Copies docxTrackedChanges.ts from backend into agent/src/lib/docx-tracked-changes.ts. edit-document.ts now calls applyTrackedEdits() to produce real w:ins/w:del markup instead of uploading the unchanged buffer. Adds fast-xml-parser dependency required by the tracked-changes implementation.

No way to supply review_id to the main agent - tool was never callable in practice. Tabular chat uses the dedicated tabular agent instead.
