error prompting auto add domain users: %v

Error message

error prompting auto add domain users: %v

What it means

This error wraps a failure from promptAutoAddUsersIfValid, which asks the user (via term.ConfirmYesNo) whether to enable domain auto-join for the org being created. It fires only in non-local mode when the yes/no confirmation prompt fails, aborting org creation.

Solutions

1. Run the command in an interactive terminal so the yes/no prompt can be answered
2. Pre-create the org or use local mode to skip the interactive auto-join prompt
3. Verify stdin is not redirected or closed
4. Retry if the terminal I/O error was transient

// ensure the auto-join prompt can be answered
fi, _ := os.Stdin.Stat()
if fi == nil || (fi.Mode()&os.ModeCharDevice) == 0 {
    return fmt.Errorf("auto-join confirmation requires an interactive terminal")
}

org, err := createOrg(false)
if err != nil {
    if strings.Contains(err.Error(), "error prompting auto add domain users") {
        // re-run interactively or default autoAddDomainUsers to false
    }
    return err
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling createOrg in non-local mode where the account email's domain is not an email-service domain, and the subsequent term.ConfirmYesNo("Enable auto-join for <domain>?") returns an error (stdin closed, EOF, I/O failure).

Common situations: Non-interactive environments (CI, piped stdin) where the auto-join confirmation cannot be answered; broken terminal input during onboarding of a new org with a corporate email domain.
