// Package terminal provides secure terminal input helpers for CLI tools.
package terminal
import (
"fmt"
"os"
"golang.org/x/term"
)
// ReadPassword prints the given prompt to stderr and reads a password
// from the terminal with echo disabled. It prints a newline after the
// input is complete so the cursor advances normally.
func ReadPassword(prompt string) (string, error) {
fmt.Fprint(os.Stderr, prompt)
b, err := term.ReadPassword(int(os.Stdin.Fd())) //nolint:gosec // fd fits in int
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr)
if err != nil {
