Anyone using Valet+ with wp-cli valet?

As per the wp-cli valet README, the “Access Denied” error is because wp-cli needed a password to connect to the local (brewed) mysql.

I didn’t have one set as was able to login to mysql as root without one:

mysql -uroot
#

So I set one: $(brew --prefix mysql)/bin/mysqladmin -u root password apassword

Now I can spin up WP sites like:

wp valet new site --dbpass=apassword
Don't go anywhere, this should only take a second...
Success: site ready! https://site.test

Loading over https, too!

I even added the password to ~/.wp-cli/config.yml and now don’t need to add the flag.

Now I have updated the configuration and project: bedrock is working, too.
