## 🛠️ Features

### 🏗️ Build System Tools (NEW!)

#### 1. Build System Generation (`generate_build_zig`)
Generate modern build.zig files with Zig 0.15.2+ patterns:
- Cross-compilation support with latest target options
- Modern dependency management with build.zig.zon
- Test and documentation integration
- Enhanced module system support

#### 2. Build System Analysis (`analyze_build_zig`) 
Analyze existing build files and get modernization recommendations:
- Detect deprecated patterns
- Suggest Zig 0.15.2+ alternatives
- Identify missing best practices
- Module system migration guidance

#### 3. Dependency Management (`generate_build_zon`)
Generate build.zig.zon files for modern package management:
- Popular Zig packages catalog
- Version management guidance
- Best practices documentation

## Features

### Tools

#### 1. Code Optimization (`optimize_code`)
Enhanced with modern Zig patterns and build mode analysis:
- Debug, ReleaseSafe, ReleaseFast, ReleaseSmall
- Modern optimization suggestions  
- Zig 0.12+ pattern recommendations

```typescript
// Example usage
{
  "code": "const std = @import(\"std\");\n...",
  "optimizationLevel": "ReleaseFast"
}
```

#### 2. Compute Units Estimation (`estimate_compute_units`)
Estimates computational complexity and resource usage of Zig code:
- Memory usage analysis
- Time complexity estimation
- Allocation patterns detection

```typescript
// Example usage
{
  "code": "const std = @import(\"std\");\n..."
}
```

#### 3. Code Generation (`generate_code`)
Generates Zig code from natural language descriptions with support for:
- Error handling
- Testing
- Performance optimizations
- Documentation

```typescript
// Example usage
{
  "prompt": "Create a function that sorts an array of integers",
  "context": "Should handle empty arrays and use comptime when possible"
}
```

#### 4. Code Recommendations (`get_recommendations`)
Provides code improvement recommendations and best practices:
- Style and conventions
- Design patterns
- Safety considerations
- Performance insights

```typescript
// Example usage
{
  "code": "const std = @import(\"std\");\n...",
  "prompt": "Improve performance and safety"
}
```

  }
}
```

## Usage Examples

### 1. Optimize Code

```typescript
const result = await useMcpTool("zig", "optimize_code", {
  code: `
    pub fn fibonacci(n: u64) u64 {
        if (n <= 1) return n;
        return fibonacci(n - 1) + fibonacci(n - 2);
    }
  `,
  optimizationLevel: "ReleaseFast"
});
```

### 2. Estimate Compute Units

```typescript
const result = await useMcpTool("zig", "estimate_compute_units", {
  code: `
    pub fn bubbleSort(arr: []i32) void {
        var i: usize = 0;
        while (i < arr.len) : (i += 1) {
            var j: usize = 0;
            while (j < arr.len - 1) : (j += 1) {
                if (arr[j] > arr[j + 1]) {
                    const temp = arr[j];
                    arr[j] = arr[j + 1];
                    arr[j + 1] = temp;
                }
            }
        }
    }
  `
});
```

### 3. Generate Code

```typescript
const result = await useMcpTool("zig", "generate_code", {
  prompt: "Create a thread-safe counter struct",
  context: "Should use atomic operations and handle overflow"
});
```

### 4. Get Recommendations

```typescript
const result = await useMcpTool("zig", "get_recommendations", {
  code: `
    pub fn main() !void {
        var list = std.ArrayList(u8).init(allocator);
        var i: u32 = 0;
        while (true) {
            if (i >= 100) break;
            try list.append(@intCast(i));
            i += 1;
        }
    }
  `,
  prompt: "performance"
});
