Description
## Summary
Expand chat visualization beyond existing Chart.js inline charts.
## User Value
Tracking this as a GitHub issue moves the backlog item out of a private markdown file and gives the team a clear place to prioritize, design, implement, and validate the work.
## Proposed Behavior
Start with a gap list: supported chart types, table-to-chart prompts, export fidelity, interaction needs, maps, timelines, diagrams, and whether any new local library is justified.
## Acceptance Criteria
- [ ] The requested behavior is designed or implemented for the relevant SimpleChat surfaces.
- [ ] Permission, configuration, and existing-feature interactions are accounted for.
- [ ] Tests, documentation, or validation notes are added as appropriate.
