Mission: Build a File Management Platform

File handling seems simple until you need to support large files, resumable uploads, processing pipelines, and global delivery, at which point it becomes one of the more technically demanding features in any application. This mission deploys your AI squad to build a scalable file management platform with multipart uploads supporting resumability for files up to several gigabytes, cloud storage on AWS S3 or Google Cloud Storage, image and video processing pipelines, CDN delivery for fast global access, access control with signed URLs, and storage usage tracking. Forge builds the upload pipeline with progress tracking, processing workers for thumbnails and format conversion, and a CDN configuration for optimal delivery performance. ShipSquad file systems are designed for real-world usage patterns where users upload large files on unreliable connections, expect instant previews, and need secure sharing with expiring links. We implement signed URLs with configurable expiration, virus scanning for uploaded content, and storage tiering that automatically moves infrequently accessed files to cheaper storage classes. The mission delivers in 2-3 weeks with file infrastructure that handles anything your users upload reliably and securely.
