AI Coding Instructions

• Keep Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word references in the .NET project that owns Word automation; TypeScript clients should call an API rather than automate Word directly.
• Release COM objects and close documents and application instances when document work completes.
• Run Word interop only on Windows hosts where Microsoft Word is installed and available to the service account.
• Treat source document paths and output paths as untrusted input; validate allowed locations before passing them to the Word automation layer.
