v1.1.0

Mini Agent CLI — v1.1.0

What's new

• JSON-based tool calling — replaced the old TOOL:name:arg string format with a structured JSON protocol:
  TOOL {"name":"...","args":{...}}-{"Reason":"..."}
• Agent reasoning display — the agent now shows why it picked a tool before running it
• Colored CLI output — red for your input, blue for the agent, yellow for tool name, green for the reason
• Agent thinking indicator — shows [Agent Thinking...] while waiting for Gemini
• *CLI Logo added to README header

Bug fixes

• Fixed multi-JSON parsing in TOOL responses
• writeFile now explicitly uses utf8 encoding

Structure

• Files moved into src/ directory
• Entry point is now node src/index.js
