No matter how you like to participate in developer communities, Pulumi wants to meet you there. If you want to meet other Pulumi users to share use-cases and best practices, contribute code or documentation, see us at an event, or just tell a story about something cool you did with Pulumi, you are part of our community.

hey, you can simulate the context change with <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-random> and <https://www.pulumi.com/docs/concepts/options/dependson/>.
The idea is to have a resource that will trigger an update every time and make your command depend on such a resource. I’ve seen an example of this somewhere, but couldn’t find it, so try to research that way

Have you looked at command.local.Run? I believe this is exactly what it’s meant for: <https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/command/api-docs/local/run/|https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/command/api-docs/local/run/>

(I think I’ve used this for things like running front-end build steps as part of a deployment.)
