`vp create` with no arguments should imply `--interactive`

[rChaoz]

Description

Just a small QOL suggestion. As a new user, I copy-paste the installation command then run vp create, it should be friendly and behave like vp create --interactive, or at least suggest this approach, which the current error message doesn't:

A template name is required when running in non-interactive mode

Usage: vp create [TEMPLATE] [OPTIONS] [-- TEMPLATE_OPTIONS]

Example:
  # Create a new application in non-interactive mode with a custom target directory
  vp create vite:application --no-interactive --directory=apps/my-app

Use `vp create --list` to list all available templates, or run `vp create --help` for more information.

Validations

• Read the Contributing Guidelines.
• Confirm this request is for Vite+ itself and not for Vite, Vitest, tsdown, Rolldown, or Oxc.
• Check that there isn't already an issue requesting the same feature.

Do you have a way to reproduce this issue? Normally it should enter interactive mode, rather than showing this error message about missing template name.

I didn't do anything special. I am on Windows, decided to try Vite+ for the first time, and ran the following commands, in order:

irm https://vite.plus/ps1 | iex
vp help
vp create

Update: Running vp create now works correctly. Maybe it's an edge case related to running vp create immediately after installation, in the same terminal, on Windows.

Looked through the code and I found the cause, I believe - my hunch was right. vite create is non-interactive in CI environments:

vite-plus/packages/cli/src/utils/prompts.ts

Lines 183 to 186 in f1f6016

	export function defaultInteractive() {
	// If CI environment, use non-interactive mode by default
	return !process.env.CI && process.stdin.isTTY;
	}

And the install script for Windows sets CI = true on installation, persisting in the shell:

vite-plus/packages/cli/install.ps1

Lines 376 to 385 in f1f6016

	try {
	$env:CI = "true"
	& "$BinDir\vp.exe" install --silent *> $installLog
	if ($LASTEXITCODE -ne 0) {
	Write-Host "error: Failed to install dependencies. See log for details: $installLog" -ForegroundColor Red
	exit 1
	}
	} finally {
	Pop-Location
	}

The finally should reset $env:CI to whatever it was beforehand.
