May 1, 2025May 2025 monthly summary for brev-cli: Focused on simplifying workspace presentation by removing the 'shared workspaces' concept and updating display logic to show only user-relevant information. This eliminates user-ID based filtering and improves accuracy of workspace listings. Delivered via commit 2fb523a140c1f2b720968511c32b5ff80e4eaee9 ("remove shared (#232)"). Business value: clearer UX, fewer edge cases, and easier maintenance. Skills demonstrated: CLI development, UI/UX refinement, refactoring of display logic, and disciplined, commit-tracked delivery.
