Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I think it would significantly saves time if I can just upload my transcript and parse the course I took got populated in the planner, so it would help me keep track of what I took, and what I can take next, as a person whose schedules often get lost in notes and documents

Describe the solution you'd like

I belive this one can be done with a custom-made parser or OCR solution since NUS transcript's format don't vary, least we can use LLM. If privacy is a concern, it can just be a one-off thing and no data is stored

Describe alternatives you've considered

NIL

Additional context

What does the button "Upload" even upload? What file?

Research direction

The issue names Planner mode and the Upload button but no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating that UI and determining what Upload currently accepts; define supported transcript input, privacy behavior, parsing accuracy, and completion criteria before implementation.
