Essentially I'm trying to, completely isolated and offline, get all registered resources and their inputs. I don't care about resolved outputs and don't want it to hit any aws apis, I'm just wanting to check user input.

@magnificent-lifeguard-15082 remote state reference might not honour this, you'll need to file an issue, it's a bit of an edge case

@magnificent-lifeguard-15082 as a workaround, you could wrap the remote state reference with an
