Would it be possible for an automation pulumi program to reference itself to get its previous outputs? I'd like to add some stuff that needs to be done on first run (and/or if there's a version difference) but NOT on subsequent runs.. figuring setting the success/failure of that in outputs would be a good way to go about doing it.

You can get the outputs for a stack with

Stack.outputs()

or

LocalWorkspace.stackOutputs()

. You can check the outputs before running

Stack.up()

to achieve what you want.

We generally create a dynamic resource for this.
