feat(cli): warn user if setting autostart on workspace with template-level autostart#20454
Merged
Conversation
…level autostart When a user sets a workspace autostart schedule via the CLI, and the template has autostart requirement restrictions (days of week), warn the user that their workspace may not autostart on days not allowed by the template. This helps users understand why their workspace might not autostart as expected when template-level restrictions are in place. Fixes #15619
This test was not applicable in AGPL mode and was always skipped.

LGTM modulo one wording suggestion
Use positive wording 'may only autostart on these days' instead of 'may not autostart on days not in this list'. Co-authored-by: Cian Johnston <cian@coder.com>
