Description
I am having trouble integrating this with VSCode Devcontainer workflow. As the cli is written there needs to be a --build-only support so a container is not launched. This will allow me to specify the build only mode to my Devcontainer's Initialize command. The cli only provides a way to (build AND start container). To make this more extnsible, please provide (build local/remote), (build AND start container), (start cotainer). The previous humble version with the run_dev allowed this workflow. The CLI has broken users moving from humble to Jazzy.
"initializeCommand": "/bin/bash -c 'issac-ros activate --build-only'",
Happy to hear if there other ways to do this.
