説明

Customize the method by which the AWS keys are decided. User may want to create their training stack under a different AWS account than their environment variables are set, and the tool right now is set to always launch in the default creds' account.

Can introduce as part of a config file to set the credential retrieval method, and the ACCESS_KEY to use. Make sure not to ask that the SECRET_KEY be loaded into a config file as this is not secure by default and we shouldn't encourage users to keep plaintext creds on their computers.

調査方針
Investigate the existing AWS credential handling in the codebase. Identify where credentials are obtained (likely from environment variables). Read the current setup to understand how accounts are selected. Propose a configuration file (e.g., YAML or JSON) to allow specifying different credential sources per account. Implement a secure way to reference keys without storing them in plaintext, possibly using AWS SDK's credential chain. Ensure backward compatibility.
