[Cursor] Improve Reasoning Tokens Documentation and Implementation (#99)

* Refactor plan_exec_llm to use centralized LLM query function

- Update plan_exec_llm to use query_llm from llm_api
- Remove redundant LLM client creation and token tracking logic
- Add support for multiple LLM providers and models via CLI arguments
- Simplify token usage tracking by leveraging existing infrastructure
- Remove hardcoded OpenAI-specific code to improve provider flexibility

* [Cursor] Improve Reasoning Tokens Documentation and Implementation

This commit improves the handling and documentation of reasoning tokens across the codebase:

- Added comprehensive docstrings explaining reasoning tokens
- Enhanced query_llm function documentation for provider-specific behaviors
- Fixed token tracking for o1 model and non-o1 models
- Improved test coverage and documentation
- Added CHANGELOG.md to track changes

Key technical details:
- Reasoning tokens are o1-specific (OpenAI's most advanced model)
- All other models have reasoning_tokens=None
- Token tracking behavior varies by provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini)

Testing:
- All 21 tests passing
- Added specific test cases for reasoning tokens
- Improved test documentation and coverage

* update token check logic

 - When using seaborn styles in matplotlib, use 'seaborn-v0_8' instead of 'seaborn' as the style name due to recent seaborn version changes
 - Use `gpt-4o` as the model name for OpenAI. It is the latest GPT model and has vision capabilities as well. `o1` is the most advanced and expensive model from OpenAI. Use it when you need to do reasoning, planning, or get blocked.
 - Use `claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022` as the model name for Claude. It is the latest Claude model and has vision capabilities as well.
+- When running Python scripts that import from other local modules, use `PYTHONPATH=.` to ensure Python can find the modules. For example: `PYTHONPATH=. python tools/plan_exec_llm.py` instead of just `python tools/plan_exec_llm.py`. This is especially important when using relative imports.
