you can run it on the command line without using zeekctl/broctl using 
zeek (or bro) -i [interfacename]. However, logs will always written to 
files - it does not really make sense to write them to the console, 
which would make it hard to distinguish between the different log 
streams.

Note - most Zeek logs are policy neutral and not really alerts…

I don’t 100% get the questions. If you load misc/loaded-scripts in 
your configuration, you will get a loaded-scripts.log which will show 
you all script files that are loaded. The default configuration of Zeek 
loads most protocol analyzers and writes their log-files.

zeekctl/broctl is the management application to start zeek cluster 
setups. See e.g. https://github.com/zeek/zeekctl - or 
https://docs.zeek.org/en/stable/quickstart/ for a getting started guide 
that mentions this.
