Summary

This PR fixes the issue where logs from the agents manager were going to stdout in container mode, breaking the TUI.

Changes

Container Detection: Added internal/utils/container.go to detect when CLI runs inside a container
Skip Docker-in-Docker: Modified agent and MCP managers to skip local startup in container mode
Redirect Output: All docker command output redirected to io.Discard to prevent TUI pollution
Dockerfile Update: Set INFER_IN_CONTAINER=true for explicit detection
Testing: Added unit tests for container detection

Testing

Run CLI in container mode: docker run --rm -it ghcr.io/inference-gateway/cli:latest
Verify no JSON logs appear in TUI
Verify remote agent discovery still works
Run unit tests: task test

Resolves #386
