[Feature Request] Allow BYOK usage without Factory AI login or cloud sync

[ShubDVS]

Currently, the CLI forces a login with a Factory AI account even if the user intends to use their own API keys (BYOK) exclusively. Additionally, local settings are automatically synced to the cloud.

I would like a "Local Mode" or "Offline Mode" that allows the CLI to function using only a local configuration file and local environment variables for API keys, without requiring an authentication handshake with Factory AI servers.

Benefits:

• Better support for air-gapped or high-security environments.
• Faster startup time.
• True ownership of configuration for BYOK users.

This is very useful when applying droid to GitHub Actions, rather than setting up an API key, I just want to let my custom AI model do some things for me.
