Pull Request Overview
This PR implements an interactive command autocorrection feature for WP-CLI that suggests corrections for misspelled commands. The system supports three modes controlled via the WP_CLI_AUTOCORRECT environment variable: 'none' (default), 'confirm' (interactive), and 'auto' (automatic correction without confirmation).
Key changes include:
- Added
$autocorrectparameter tofind_command_to_run()method to enable correction behavior - Modified error handling to show warnings and prompt for confirmation when suggestions are available
- Added logic to execute suggested commands automatically or after user confirmation
- Updated tests to verify the new interactive confirmation flow
