Following up from https://localstack-cloud.slack.com/archives/C0A1857LGTU/p1773920600866469, this will make some clarifications on TUI availability for this release. More interactive TUI will be added after the initial release (DRG-385).

Updated the README to clarify that the Bubble Tea TUI appears for specific commands (start, login, status) when run in an interactive terminal, and simplified the lstk command description by removing the parenthetical reference to the interactive TUI.

In `@README.md`:
- Line 49: Update the README TUI description that currently mentions only
`start`, `login`, and `status`: change that line to explicitly list all
implemented TUI commands (`start`, `stop`, `login`, `logout`, `status`, `logs`,
and `update`) or replace "start, login, status, etc." with a clearer phrase such
as "for action-oriented commands such as start, stop, login, logout, status,
logs, and update" so the README accurately reflects the available TUI commands.

The TUI command list in the README is incomplete; "etc." masks missing commands.

Line 49 lists only start, login, and status as TUI commands, but the codebase implements TUI for seven commands total: start, stop, login, logout, status, logs, and update. Either list all seven commands, or use more general language such as "for action-oriented commands" to avoid misleading readers about which commands provide the interactive TUI.

the rabbit is correct, but we also have etc. there so it's a wash

@silv-io Fair point — the etc. does serve as a catch-all, so readers won't be misled into thinking only those three commands have TUI support. Happy to let this one go! 🐇

The rabbit does not take into account the intent here is not to list all commands here that support TUI, to avoid maintaing multiple sources of truth. 😁

Seems like the humans are having a chat. I'll hop back into my burrow for now. If you need me again, just tag @coderabbitai in a new comment, and I'll come hopping out!
