Build CLI

Build the `unity-mcp-cli` TypeScript project and optionally link it globally.

Step 1 — Install Dependencies

cd cli && npm install

Only needed if `node_modules/` is missing or `package.json` changed.

Step 2 — Build TypeScript

cd cli && npm run build

This compiles `src/**/*.ts` → `dist/**/*.js` via `tsc`.

Step 3 — Link Globally (if `$ARGUMENTS` contains `--link` or first time)

cd cli && npm link

This creates a global symlink so `unity-mcp-cli` is available from any terminal. Only needed once — after that, `npm run build` alone is sufficient.

Step 4 — Verify

unity-mcp-cli --version

Confirm the CLI is accessible and shows the expected version.

Report

Print the version and confirm success. If any step failed, show the error output.
