Remote Runs (Beta)

TODO: this needs a refresh

Remote Runs lets you execute OpenTofu/Terraform plan and apply operations in OpenTaco-managed remote environments instead of on your local machine.

You trigger runs from the CLI with dgctl, but execution happens remotely with centralized controls and consistent runtime behavior across your team. Logs are streamed back to your terminal so you keep a CLI-driven workflow while shifting execution off local laptops.

This model is similar to HCP Terraform remote execution.

Prerequisites:

• Set up your OpenTaco account
• State Management

These tasks follow the same RBAC rules specified in your opa policies. For example this command:

dgctl exec --project <project_name> --command "digger plan"

Will perform a remote plan for the project. The changes don’t need to be pushed to the remote repo for this to function since the local directory will be zipped and uploaded to the remote CI environment to perform the plan.
