Description
Repro steps
1. Sign out of account
2. Can still see workflows
Note: Cannot manipulate anything, which is good.

Expectation:
I would expect that upon sign out that I should be returned to this view:

There are other extensions that do an action upon Sign Out like Git Lens.
It might be worth seeing how they work and how they hook into a sign out from VS Code and perform an action.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the sign-out flow in the VS Code extension and inspect how it responds when the account is signed out. Compare the sign-out behavior with GitLens as suggested in the issue; done means signing out clears the workflows view and returns the user to a sign-in prompt.
