you're looking for the automation api!
<https://www.pulumi.com/automation/>

There are some examples here: <https://github.com/pulumi/automation-api-examples/tree/main/python>

can you point me to the code for the equivalent of pulumi login?

It looks like this is updated:  ~/.pulumi/credentials.json

hi there! it's not currently implemented in the automation API itself, but you should be able to achieve the same result using os.SubProcess:
<https://docs.python.org/3/library/subprocess.html>

yah.  it also looks like I can just generate ~/.pulumi/credentials.json with current pointed to my project.

I can write a context manager to generate and then remove on completion of pulumi action.
