Is it possible to detect when Pulumi is running in watch mod

Question

Is it possible to detect when Pulumi is running in watch mode to change resource behavior For example could a custom docker image resource be made that detects when Pulumi is running in watch mode and whenever there s a change to source files instead of rebuilding the image it syncs the files through a volume allowing for stuff like hot reloading This would not be dissimilar from what Tilt and Skaffold allow you to do
