Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing how the Positron Assistant handles generated responses and the linked discussion, then define how static HTML would be detected and displayed in the IDE. Done should mean Assistant-generated HTML can be served or viewed reliably, with coverage for the supported response format.

Description
Request: I would like to allow Positron to serve / view HTML that is generated by the Positron Assistant. This style of development is available through Claude Desktop via Artifacts and is a great way to use LLMs to prototype even if you intend to move some of the HTML generation steps into your codebase.
Currently the Positron Assistant will tell me that it cannot serve HTML but I wonder if it might be able to detect HTML and serve it through the IDE. As a longtime user of R/Rstudio/Quarto I have gotten a lot of leverage using code to generate static HTML assets. I think adding a feature like this within the development cycle would be really powerful. In many ways Posit might have an advantage in this space since you can prototype, then move some of the code to a file to encapsulate logic but always use the HTML output as your endpoint.
