FAQPage Schema
How do I run Starlark scripts and Kurtosis packages locally or from GitHub?

You can run Starlark scripts and Kurtosis packages by using the kurtosis run command, which supports executing local folders, repositories, and remote GitHub-hosted packages for development workflows.

Can I execute Kurtosis packages with a dry-run or specific arguments?
