They do not - they need to be unique within a project is all

<https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/stack/#create-stack|Create a stack> states `The stack name must be unique within a project.`
The project has to be unique.

Hmm…I have two folders each with their own Pulumi.yaml with a different name, but when I run `pulumi stack ls` stacks from both projects get listed. And when I try to run `pulumi stack init foo` in one folder it says that the stack already exists.

I’m using my own backend, if that makes a difference.

Unfortunately, this is an issue with own backends, there is no project in path, so stack names should be unique

Ok thanks! Do you know, if this is something that might get fixed in the future?

there is a plan, but I don't think that it is of any priority for the pulumi team, so in best case something can change in a year I think

or maybe someone external will contribute
