CLI/TUI launcher for the AareDAQ server and GUI on MX beamline consoles at PSI.

Installed as the `aarel` command. It detects the current beamline and launches the
matching application, opens a TUI to pick one, or deploys a new checkout.

## Usage

```
aarel pick          # open the TUI to choose what to launch
aarel gui           # launch the GUI for the detected beamline
aarel server        # launch the server for the detected beamline
```

Each command has a single-letter alias (`p`, `g`, `s`). `--config <path>`
selects a different config file; it defaults to `data/defaults.json`.

### Launching

`gui` and `server` pick their config entry from the detected beamline. Use
`--entry <name>` to launch a different one.
