Release v0.1.0 of mcp-bash-framework, a lightweight Bash implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It lets you turn shell scripts and CLI tools into MCP-compatible servers for seamless integration with AI agents - no Python, Node.js, or other runtimes required.

Key features: - Zero dependencies: Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows (via Git Bash/WSL). - Core MCP support: Tool/resource/prompt handling, schema validation, progress streaming, cancellation, and pagination. - Auto-discovery of scripts for easy setup. - Scaffolding generators to kickstart projects. - Examples included, like an ffmpeg-based video studio.

Great for quick AI experimentation, prototyping, or minimal environments.

Feedback and contributions welcome!
