Additional information

Your own --help shows that partner-developer is a valid option.

DEFINITION FILE OVERRIDE FLAGS
  -e, --edition=<option>     Salesforce edition of the scratch org. Overrides the value of the "edition" option in the definition file, if set.
                             <options: developer|enterprise|group|professional|partner-developer|partner-enterprise|partner-group|partner-professional>

I'm able to create a partner developer org using the -f so it doesn't seem like a permissions issue:

  "orgName": "test",
  "country": "US",
  "edition": "Partner Developer",
  "description": "Test",
  "hasSampleData": true,
  "language": "English",

    },

Our DevHub is a PBO, which is why I'm able to create a partner developer edition org with the -f flag. This doc https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.pkg1_dev.meta/pkg1_dev/isv_partner_scratch_org_editions.htm mentions I should be able to use this edition. I only get the error when using the --edition flag.

Hey @Kevmo92, this does look like a bug. That error message is coming back from the server, you can see the POST if you run the command with the --dev-debug flag.

If I clone plugin-org, change that flag value to partner developer (no hyphen), build it with yarn build, then run ../plugin-org/bin/run.js org create scratch --edition "partner developer", I get a completely different error message:

You don't have permission to create Partner Edition organizations

This is expected since my current dev-hub is not configured for partner orgs, but at least the edition validation is satisfied. I'll get a ticket created and we'll get it resolved. Thanks for reporting it!

@iowillhoit Thanks for taking a look! I need to remember the --dev-debug flag in the future, that's a super helpful flag.

Thanks for reporting this, we got it fixed in sf 2.23.20 (current RC), will be promoted to stable next week.

This is now in sf v2.23.20, the current production CLI.
