Research direction

The bug is in the --remote branch of the d1 migrations list handler in packages/wrangler/src/d1/migrations/list.ts, around lines 53-55, where requireAuth({}) is called with an empty config. Compare it with the migrations apply handler, which already passes the loaded config and works with account_id set. To check the fix, run the list command with --remote in a non-interactive shell on a login with two accounts, using a config that sets account_id. Done means the command selects the configured account without prompting or erroring.

Description

bug package:wrangler product:d1
What versions & operating system are you using?

wrangler 4.151.0 (also 4.134.0), Node 22, macOS 15 (Darwin 24.6.0, arm64)

Please provide a link to a minimal reproduction

No repo needed. Any project whose wrangler.jsonc sets account_id and has a D1 binding, run by a user whose login can see more than one account:

{
  "name": "example",
  "account_id": "<account A>",
  "d1_databases": [
    { "binding": "DB", "database_name": "example-db", "database_id": "<id>", "migrations_dir": "migrations" }
  ]
}

wrangler d1 migrations list example-db --remote   # in a non-interactive shell
Describe the Bug

wrangler d1 migrations list --remote ignores account_id from the config file. With more than one account on the login, it fails in a non-interactive shell (or prompts in an interactive one) even though the config names the account.

The handler authenticates with an empty config instead of the loaded one:

https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/blob/4a5377fc228dd94aa5df7545c8185cdd98be733e/packages/wrangler/src/d1/migrations/list.ts#L53-L55

if (remote) {
	await requireAuth({});
}

getActiveAccountId() only reads config.account_id, so passing {} means the account from wrangler.jsonc is never considered. wrangler d1 migrations apply --remote on the same project works, as do other commands that pass config. Passing config here (await requireAuth(config);) should fix it.

Expected: the command uses account_id from the config, as apply does.
Workaround: set CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID.

Please provide any relevant error logs
✘ [ERROR] More than one account available but unable to select one in non-interactive mode.

  Please set the appropriate `account_id` in your Wrangler configuration file or assign it to the `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID` environment variable.
  Available accounts are (`<name>`: `<account_id>`):
    `<account A>`: `<id>`
    `<account B>`: `<id>`
