Questions on "Files" feature in Agent component

🪲Bug Report🧩componentAdvice🎁Feature Request
I read the docs and it wasn't clear what reference counting does exactly in this case and how file content is managed in context after sending requests.

Related: It seems that agents are moving increasingly towards filesystem-based knowledge retrieval and tool-calling (skills). Supporting skills is great for reducing tools-induced context bloat.
I'm thinking about making a filesystem-like interface to DB/filestorage and perhaps make it a component and give that to the model so it can read from and write to (segments of) files indexed in convex tables. This would allow first-class support of skills in convex agent component.
