Code Review

The pull request aims to clean up and condense the README.md, and it successfully moves the "Prerequisites" section to a more logical location. However, in the process of condensing, some crucial information has been removed. My review includes feedback on restoring important user notes and installation options that were removed, as their absence could negatively impact the user experience. I've also included a minor suggestion to improve phrasing for clarity.

[jamubc]

This pull request updates the README.md file to improve clarity, streamline the content, and reorganize sections for better usability. The changes include removing redundant notes, adding a new prerequisites section, and simplifying installation instructions.

Documentation Improvements:

• Removed redundant notes about using the Gemini CLI and its interactions with other MCP tools, as well as details about fallback behavior and flash model usage, to reduce clutter.
• Updated the phrasing of the documentation link to emphasize its searchability: "Thorough documentation" with "searching."

Content Reorganization:

• Introduced a new "Prerequisites" section to clearly outline the requirements for using the tool, including Node.js and the Google Gemini CLI. This section was moved to a more logical position for better flow. [1] [2]
• Removed the "Installation Options" section, likely to simplify the setup process and focus on essential configuration steps.
