Description

### Checks

- [x] I have searched [github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues](https://github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues?q=) and there are no duplicates of my issue
- [x] I have run `q doctor` in the affected terminal session
- [x] I have run `q restart` and replicated the issue again

### Operating system

macOS 15.4.1 (24E263)

### Expected behaviour

Amazon Q CLI should provide auto-complete functionality and command recommendations as users type, similar to other modern CLI tools. This would help users discover available commands and parameters without needing to reference documentation.

### Actual behaviour
