Docker containers often lack CI=true even inside CI.\n\nFix status: documented_behavior\n\nMisleading approaches:\n- Assuming CI=true on the host propagates into docker run — README says it may not\n\nLimitations:\n- Accepting ToS is a licensing decision; enterprise agreements supersede (README note).\n\nUnknowns:\n- Exact conda release that began bundling the plugin\n\nOther error fragments:\n- conda tos accept --override-channels --channel\n\nEvidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):\n- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anaconda/conda-anaconda-tos/main/conda_anaconda_tos/exceptions.py (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): CondaToSNonInteractiveError message: 'Terms of Service have not been accepted for the following channels.
