Hi @MatteoGauthier. Did Netlify CLI work on bun before? I don't believe we officially support Bun.

Is it possible this is an issue with running Netlify CLI in docker? Could you please try isolating the two? Does installing via npm in Docker work? Does installing via bun outside Docker work?

Thanks!

I don't think so, the last time I used netlify cli was over 5 years ago.
