Infrastructure as code is the right model for production systems. State tracking, drift detection, and repeatable deployments all matter when you’re managing real workloads.

But sometimes, you also need a quick, one-off interaction with the cloud: create a bucket or a database, look up a VPC, delete a stray resource.

Today we’re introducing pulumi do, a new command for direct resource operations. With pulumi do, you can create, read, update, delete, and query any cloud resource from the terminal with a single command, across thousands of Pulumi-supported providers — no project, code, or state required.

Since launching Pulumi Neo, over 4,500 organizations have used it to delegate real infrastructure work: scaffolding, migrating, investigating, operationalizing, and more. Though that usage has come entirely through Pulumi Cloud, we know a large portion of Pulumi users live in the terminal, and increasingly that’s where AI tools run too. Now we’re bringing Neo there.

pulumi neo brings the same Neo experience you’ve had in Pulumi Cloud to your terminal. Running locally means there’s no separate branch to push, no credentials to provision, and no context to paste: Neo picks up the setup you already have.

AI agents do a lot of their work through CLIs. They’re easier to call than HTTP APIs and they produce predictable output. Over the last few months our own CLI traffic has shifted from mostly people typing commands to people and agents running commands together, often in the same session.

Today we’re shipping a release built for both. The Pulumi CLI is reorganized around three ideas: the right command should be the one you can guess, anything you can do in Pulumi Cloud should also be doable from the terminal, and what comes back should be just as readable to an agent as it is to a person.

Tracing is an important part of our CLI observability story. So far we’ve relied on (the now deprecated) OpenTracing for this. We have now added OTel tracing to the CLI, which is more future-proof, and should in most cases give you a better view over what the CLI is doing.

Sometimes infrastructure needs a clean slate. A VM with a corrupted disk, an expired certificate, or a stuck Kubernetes object. Pulumi CLI v3.192.0 introduces pulumi state taint and pulumi state untaint commands that let you mark resources for replacement—especially valuable when you have state access but restricted cloud permissions.
