The monitoring stack can be tested out locally with

```
CLUSTER=seed PROVIDER_TYPE=gke ./hack/local-up-monitoring.sh
```

That command is a bit opinionated and does a local render.
The local render can be disabled by setting `NO_MOCK_OUTPUT=1`
You can run any pulumi command with a local environment, for example preview with:

```
CLUSTER=seed PROVIDER_TYPE=gke ./hack/env-monitor-mock.sh pulumi preview
```

Specific parts can be disabled by setting `NO_DEPLOY_` for it.
For example, setting `NO_DEPLOY_FALCO=1` means falco will not be deployed.
You can find all the options by looking at index.ts

Another approach to testing out one stack is to create a separate index.ts.
This can be seen in [../logging/](../logging/README.md).
