cdktf deploy fails in CI with "Error: Raw mode is not supported on the current process.stdin"

TL;DR

Add --auto-approve to the deploy command in CI: cdktf deploy --auto-approve. The interactive approval prompt needs a TTY, which pipeline agents do not provide.

The error

Error: Raw mode is not supported on the current process.stdin, which Ink uses as input stream by default.

Fix it

1. In your pipeline definition, change cdktf deploy to cdktf deploy --auto-approve (add the stack name too for multi-stack projects: cdktf deploy MyStack --auto-approve).
2. Re-run the pipeline and confirm deploy proceeds past the approval step.

Expected result: deploy plans and applies without trying to read from stdin.

When to use this

• cdktf deploy works on your machine but fails in Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or any headless agent with the raw-mode error
• Any cdktf command that prompts for confirmation in an environment without a TTY

When NOT to use this

• The error appears on your local terminal (check that stdin is actually a TTY; something else is wrong)
• You want a human to review the plan in CI (split into cdktf diff for review and a gated deploy --auto-approve)

Root cause

The CDKTF CLI renders its interactive UI with Ink (React for CLIs), which puts stdin into raw mode to read keypresses. CI agents run without a TTY, so raw mode is unsupported and Ink throws. --auto-approve skips the confirmation prompt entirely, so stdin is never touched.

Edge cases

• cdktf destroy has the same prompt; it also accepts --auto-approve.
• If your pipeline wraps cdktf in Docker, allocate no TTY (docker run without -t is fine once --auto-approve is set).
