For AI Assistants

This CLI is designed to be invoked by AI assistants as shell commands. All output is JSON.

Ordering workflow:

1. location -> set delivery coordinates
2. login -> authenticate
3. search -> find restaurants
4. menu -> browse items
5. item -> check toppings/variations
6. add -> build cart
7. preview -> review order
8. order -> place order (only after user confirmation)

Limitations:

• Only payment_on_delivery (Cash on Delivery) works
• Philippines only (foodpanda.ph)
• Session tokens expire; use login to refresh
