Affected Resource(s)

Debug Output

Expected Behavior

Plan with actions should produce output on cdktf diff or cdktf apply

Actual Behavior

Output plan never appears.

I have tried with/without tmux, with multiple different terminal emulators and with FORCE_COLOR=0 set. Also with redirecting output to a file.

The plan is in the TFC run above, but we could make this clearer that we don't intend to show it in the CLI

[mjrlee]

Could we show it in the CLI? It would be very useful in cdktf deploy. I understand an edge use case for production but it would be very useful for rapid development.

I'm using Terraform Cloud and am unable to fully deploy from the CLI when I'm a team member in TC that has write permission because of this issue wont allow the plan to be displayed in the CLI. Using the terraform CLI seems to work ok. It seems these should line up ideally.

[DanielMSchmidt]

Fixed in #1955, now it should behave exactly the same as with Terraform CLI (since we are using Terraform CLI under the hood)
