feat(ui): Enhanced flag display with color coordination and clean separation

Display Enhancements: • Added color-coordinated flag lines (bold yellow flags, dim separator) • Enhanced bottom preview panel (3 lines → 8 lines) • Implemented bordered box design with flag 🏴 and description 📝 emojis • Added clean flag/description separation using AWK-based parsing • Flag section shows ONLY bash input (e.g., -s sig) • Description section shows ONLY explanation text • Cyan bold for flags, green for descriptions in preview • Handles missing descriptions with dimmed "(No description available)" Technical Improvements: • Modified extract_all_flags() to add ANSI color codes to output • Enhanced browse_flags_fuzzy() preview with intelligent parsing • Uses AWK field separator on em dash (—) for robust splitting • Replaced xargs with sed for trimming to avoid flag interpretation • Added fallback handling for flags without descriptions Project Organization: • Moved documentation files to docs/ directory for better structure 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

+# Bash Buddy
+
+🚀 CLI assistant for impromptu bash scripting help
+
+## Description
+
+Interactive bash command helper that uses `fzf` to browse common bash commands and their options. Perfect for when you need a quick reminder of command flags and usage without digging through man pages.
+
+## Features
+
+- 🔍 **Interactive Search** - Browse commands with fzf fuzzy finder
+- 📖 **Command Descriptions** - Clear explanations for each command
+- 🎯 **Flag Filtering** - Search for specific command options
+- 🎨 **Color-Coded Output** - Easy-to-read terminal output
+- 📚 **Smart Help** - Works with both built-in and external commands
+- ⚡ **Quick Access** - Fast command reference at your fingertips
+
+## Dependencies
+
+```bash
+# fzf - Fuzzy finder (required)
+sudo apt install fzf      # Ubuntu/Debian
+brew install fzf          # macOS
+sudo pacman -S fzf        # Arch
+```
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone http://localhost:3030/trill-technician/bash-buddy.git
+cd bash-buddy
+
+# Make executable
+chmod +x bash-helper.sh
+
+# Optional: Install system-wide
+sudo cp bash-helper.sh /usr/local/bin/bash-helper
+
+# Or add to your PATH
+echo 'export PATH="$HOME/bash-buddy:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
+source ~/.bashrc
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+./bash-helper.sh
+```
+
+### Workflow
+
+1. **Launch** - Run the script
+2. **Browse** - Use arrow keys to navigate commands
+3. **Select** - Press Enter to choose a command
+4. **Filter** - Optionally enter a keyword to filter flags
+5. **View** - See all available flags for the command
+
+### Example Session
+
+```
+$ ./bash-helper.sh
+
+> ls:List directory contents
+  cd:Change the current directory
+  pwd:Print the name of the current working directory
+  cp:Copy files and directories
+  mv:Move or rename files and directories
+  ...
+
+Command: ls
+Description: List directory contents
+Filter flags (optional): size
+
+    Flags for ls:
+       -s, --size
+              print the allocated size of each file, in blocks
+       -S     sort by file size, largest first
+       --block-size=SIZE
+              with -l, scale sizes by SIZE when printing them
+```
+
+## Included Commands
+
+The script includes help for these common bash commands:
+
+| Command | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| `ls` | List directory contents |
+| `cd` | Change the current directory |
+| `pwd` | Print working directory |
+| `cp` | Copy files and directories |
+| `mv` | Move or rename files |
+| `rm` | Remove files or directories |
+| `mkdir` | Create directories |
+| `rmdir` | Remove empty directories |
+| `grep` | Search text patterns |
+| `find` | Search for files |
+| `echo` | Display text |
+
+## Customization
+
+### Adding More Commands
+
+Edit the `COMMANDS` array in `bash-helper.sh`:
+
+```bash
+COMMANDS=(
+  "command-name:Description of what it does"
+  "wget:Download files from the web"
+  "curl:Transfer data with URLs"
+  "tar:Archive files"
+  # Add your own...
+)
+```
+
+### Changing Colors
+
+Modify the color variables at the top of the `show_flags()` function:
+
+```bash
+RED='\033[0;31m'
+GREEN='\033[0;32m'
+YELLOW='\033[0;33m'
+NC='\033[0m'  # No Color
+```
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. **Command List** - Defines an array of common bash commands with descriptions
+2. **FZF Selection** - Presents commands in an interactive fuzzy finder
+3. **Help Extraction** - Retrieves flag information from:
+   - Built-in commands using `help`
+   - External commands using `man` pages
+4. **Filtered Output** - Optionally filters flags based on your search term
+
+## Tips
+
+- Use partial matching in fzf (type any part of command name)
+- Filter flags to find specific options quickly
+- Add your most-used commands to the array
+- Combine with aliases for even faster access
+
+```bash
+# Add to ~/.bashrc
+alias bh='bash-helper.sh'
+```
