## Features

- **Automatic Type Inference** - Numbers and booleans are automatically converted
- **Header Detection** - Automatically uses first row as headers or generates generic ones
- **Error Handling** - Reports parsing errors with row numbers
- **Data Cleaning** - Trims whitespace from headers and values
- **Empty Line Handling** - Automatically skips empty lines

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `csv` | `string` | Yes | - | The CSV text to parse |
| `hasHeaders` | `boolean` | No | `true` | Whether the first row contains headers |

## Returns

```typescript
{
  rows: Record<string, string | number | boolean | null>[];
  headers: string[];
  rowCount: number;
  metadata: {
    parsedAt: string;
    hasErrors: boolean;
    errorCount: number;
    errors?: Array<{
      row: number;
      message: string;
    }>;
  };
}
```

## Examples

### CSV with Headers

```typescript
const result = await csvParseTool.execute({
  csv: 'product,price,inStock\nLaptop,999.99,true\nMouse,29.99,false',
});
// rows: [
//   { product: 'Laptop', price: 999.99, inStock: true },
//   { product: 'Mouse', price: 29.99, inStock: false }
// ]
```

### CSV without Headers

```typescript
const result = await csvParseTool.execute({
  csv: 'Alice,25,Engineer\nBob,30,Designer',
  hasHeaders: false,
});
// rows: [
//   { col_0: 'Alice', col_1: 25, col_2: 'Engineer' },
//   { col_0: 'Bob', col_1: 30, col_2: 'Designer' }
// ]
```

### Handling Errors

```typescript
const result = await csvParseTool.execute({
  csv: 'name,age\nAlice,25\nBob,invalid\nCharlie,35',
});
// metadata.hasErrors: true
// metadata.errors: [{ row: 1, message: '...' }]
```
