Overview

MiniCode is built around a practical terminal-first agent loop:

- accept a user request
- inspect the workspace
- call tools when needed
- review file changes before writing
- return a final response in the same terminal session

The project is intentionally compact, so the control flow, tool model, and TUI behavior remain easy to understand and extend.
