is there a single command I can use to see if the stack is locked? or am I foreced to run a pulumi up and find out ?
I may have missed something in the CLI docs but there doesn't seem to be anything.    Even something that would emit a difference.
`pulumi stack history`  `pulumi stack` ..   none of these have any indication there is a deployment running.
FYI: not using pulumi cloud.

Not currently, it's a reasonable feature request if you want to raise a github issue about it

To keep in mind: if I am not mistaken, a feature like this, although useful, can be only best effort: there will always be the possibility of a race, so `pulumi is-locked` can return false and an immediate `pulumi up` after can still fail because another `pulumi up` raced it .

Yup in most cases you probably want <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/9047>
