Hi, we're using Pulumi Cloud, but sometimes I feel the need to take a look at the stack directly using some custom CLI tools. I currently use

pulumi stack export

but our stacks can be big and that takes a while. Is there a way to keep a copy of the stack locally? I'm not looking at anything even remotely safe from a concurrent point of view BTW, just some local copy of the stack. Thank you

Stack export is just copying the JSON to the local directory. Is there another feature you'd like added?

No, I just want to avoid having to download the stack files in the first place, because my connection can be really spotty at times and it does add up, specially with big stacks

You can use a local stack file, but that does limit you to running Pulumi from your machine. There is no way to copy the stack to the local machine automatically.

Thanks anyway, it's not that big of a deal
