Do I still have to have a CLI if I’m running pulumi commands using Kubernetes operator? I also wanted to use the automation API’s with Kubernetes operator

the automation API still needs the pulumi cli installed in your
$PATH
. The Kubernetes operator uses the automation api

@billowy-army-68599 My application runs inside a Kubernetes pod and it uses Pulumi internally for provisioning some cloud VMs. In this scenario, Should I have to mention Pulumi installation steps in the Dockerfile of my application for it to work? I won’t be having a command line when deployed in production

you'll need the pulumi CLI installed yes, just run the installation script as a
RUN
in your
Dockerfile
