I seem to be writing my teleport configuration to manage my whole server stack, which I guess is a good thing as it means my servers can be setup and managed without logging in (and easily migratable). One thing that would be really handy is if I could specifically ask teleport to run a recipe on the remote machine.

I understand the idea of teleport is to be non-destructive and cause no damage if run over and over again, which i'm keeping my recipes to (its great!). However, when I want to run a recipe (maybe it changed, or to update something) it's a pain that I have to wait for apt to update, and all of my other recipes to run.

Maybe its a lot of work to get this running, and not worth it, but I just figured it would be a cool thing to be able to do.
