The startup shortcut example (copilot --plan) doesn’t show what the user should type next to actually create a plan. Consider either keeping the previous one-liner with an example prompt, or extending the snippet to include the first prompt entered after startup so readers can see the intended flow.

See below for a potential fix:

> 💡 **Startup shortcut**: You can launch the CLI directly in Plan mode from your terminal using the `--plan` flag, then enter your planning request:
> ```bash
> copilot --plan
>
> > Add a "mark as read" command to the book app
