How It Works

The CLI connects to the url://filedrop/ service via the P2P network using UrlResolver. It uses the same FiledropApi interface as the FiledropWui web interface. After creating a drop, it prints the web URL so users can share it or open it in a browser.

The download command accepts either a full WUI URL (e.g., https://filedrop.wasmserver.com/drop/abc123) or just a drop ID (abc123), making it easy to download files shared via the web interface.
