04/04/2022, 4:55 PMHi All, I'm running Dagster on AWS Elastic Container Service. As such, I have the dagit web interface, but is there a way to use the Dagster CLI, pointed at a remote instance, or do I have to login to the dagster-daemon container?

I can give it a try. I like the graphql, but I'd basically end up wrapping your python code in Click and reproducing your CLI.
