Description

Implement interactive project initialization wizard using bblessed components for text input and checkbox selections.

Acceptance Criteria

• [x] Project name and reporter prompts use bblessed forms
• [x] Checkbox agent selection replaced with bblessed checkboxes
• [x] Works on Node and Bun

Implementation Notes

Successfully implemented the init wizard using blessed forms and multi-select components:

Key Changes:

1. Project Name Input: Replaced readline prompt with promptText() function that displays a blessed textbox form
2. Reporter Name Input: Also uses promptText() with proper default value handling
3. Agent File Selection: Replaced basic prompt with multiSelect() function that renders checkboxes using blessed list widget

Technical Details:

• The promptText() function creates a centered form with a text input field
• Supports default values and handles Enter/Escape key bindings
• The multiSelect() function displays a scrollable list with checkbox-style selection
• Spacebar toggles selection, Enter confirms, Escape cancels
• Both functions gracefully fall back to simpler interfaces when blessed is unavailable

Integration:

• Modified the init command in src/cli.ts to use these new TUI functions
• Removed the dependency on the prompts package entirely
• The implementation maintains full backward compatibility through fallback mechanisms
