    "incantation": "When `azd` detects an AI-agent environment, it enables no-prompt mode automatically. Run the `azd` command you need; pass `--no-prompt` to request no-prompt mode explicitly.",

      "Version: 1.23.3",
      "--no-prompt: Runs without prompts, using existing values; fails if a required value or decision cannot be resolved automatically.",
      "Detection covers 15+ AI agents, including Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Amazon Q, and Aider.",
      "Detection uses environment variables, `AZURE_DEV_USER_AGENT` parsing, and parent process tree walking.",
      "Cross-platform support is stated for Windows, Linux, and macOS.",
      "Docs conflict: The current reference documents `AZD_NON_INTERACTIVE=false` to opt out of automatic no-prompt enablement. The card says to use `--no-prompt=false`; the current documentation does not confirm that override syntax."
