logout

crabbox logout removes the stored broker token from user config.

crabbox logout
crabbox logout --json

The broker URL and provider stay in place so a later crabbox login or crabbox login --token-stdin can reuse them. Per-lease SSH keys, repo claims, and history records are unaffected.

After logout:

• crabbox whoami exits with auth code 3 (auth failure);
• crabbox run and crabbox warmup against the coordinator fail with the same code;
• direct-provider mode keeps working when local provider credentials (AWS SDK, HCLOUD_TOKEN) are present, because direct mode does not need the broker token.

Use logout when:

• a token has leaked or you want to rotate it;
• you are switching the operator identity on a shared workstation;
• you are testing the unauthenticated path.

To clear everything (URL, provider, token, profile defaults), edit the user config file directly. crabbox config path prints the location.
