Is there a way to manage

pulumi config

any other way than invoking cli? For example can I restore the remote config from the local?

what do you mean by "restore the remote config from the local"? Are you saying you would like to update the config as show in the console using a local yaml file ?

I mean if I have a structure like this

config:
  project:database:
    app:
      password:
        secure: AAABAOeZOoIfFiQ+2w94NwR7TVMcqbib8cM3ihg5y6rg/Dgavu6J
      user: app

I need to run

pulumi config set-all --path \
  --secret database.app.password=encoded \
  --plaintext database.migrator.user=mgr \
  --secret database.migrator.password=scrt

My question is if I can manage this without using CLI, and just simply edit the file locally to make it synchronize - especially for plain text variables
