UTL-X v1.0.1

UTL-X v1.0.1

Bug fixes and CLI enhancements.

New Features

• -e / --expression — Inline UTL-X expressions, no script file needed:

  echo '{"name":"Alice"}' | utlx -e '.name'
  cat data.xml | utlx -e '.person.name' -r

• -r / --raw-output — Strip quotes from string output (like jq's -r):

  NAME=$(echo '{"name":"Alice"}' | utlx -e '.name' -r)

• Dot shorthand — .name is shorthand for $input.name in -e mode
• CLI reference docs — Complete CLI reference and 25 jq-to-utlx examples

Bug Fixes

• B11: OData serializer no longer wraps nested arrays in {"value": [...]} — only root-level collections are wrapped
• B12: YAML output no longer starts with unnecessary --- document separator

Test Coverage

• 447 conformance tests passing (100%)
• 57 CLI interface tests passing
• 32 Kotlin unit tests passing
