I've never used the InteractiveCommandClient but I would think you need to
create an instance of it first before trying to update the widget i.e.
from libqtile.command_client import InteractiveCommandClient
c=InteractiveCommandClient()
c.widget['textbox'].update('xyz')
Note the "()" at the end of the second line.
If it doesn't work, what error messages do you get?
