Major: Full Port from Python to Node.js

The entire backend and all built-in nodes have been rewritten in TypeScript/Node.js. The Python server is gone — NodeTool now runs natively on Node.js with Fastify. Python nodes
(HuggingFace, MLX, etc.) are still supported via a stdio bridge that launches only when needed.

  • Fastify HTTP + WebSocket server replacing the Python backend
  • All built-in nodes rewritten in TypeScript — text, image, audio, video, LLM, agents, and more
  • Drizzle ORM replacing the custom Python ORM
  • Supabase authentication middleware
  • esbuild hybrid bundler for Electron backend packaging
  • Parallelized server startup — Python bridge only loaded when needed
