+PICT Helper Script
+
+This script provides utilities for working with PICT models and test cases.
+
+Note: This is a placeholder/example script. Full implementation coming soon!
+
+Requirements:
+    pip install pypict --break-system-packages
+
+Usage:
+    python pict_helper.py generate config.json
+    python pict_helper.py format output.txt
+    python pict_helper.py parse output.txt
