Terraform running in Azure Pipeline attempting to install azcli provider

I'm running Terraform in an Azure Pipeline (something I have experience of doing) and for some reason the init step is attempting to install a provider for azcli, which I don't think exists. This does not happen when I run Terraform on my local machine.

My providers file is:

terraform {
  required_version = ">=0.13"

 backend "azurerm" {
   container_name = "tfstate"
   key            = "terraform.tfstate"
 }

 required_providers {
   grafana = {
   source  = "grafana/grafana"
   version = "=1.5.0"
   }
  }
}

This is the error I'm seeing:

Terraform init error

I'm not sure why Terraform is trying to install the azcli provider; I don't think it even exists. Has anyone seen this before?

Terraform searches directly and indirectly for providers when initialization. It is possible there is a mistake in the resource name or provider definition. Search your codebase for azcli.

▶ cat .\main.tf
resource "azcli_test" "test" {
    test = "true"
}

~\projects\test\t5                                                                                                                            ◷ 10:10:21 AM
