SUMMARY

When running ansible-navigator run with the --step flag it hangs. Running the equivalent command using ansible-navigator exec works as expected.

ANSIBLE-NAVIGATOR VERSION

$ ansible-navigator --version
ansible-navigator 25.12.0

CONFIGURATION

---
ansible-navigator:
  ansible:
    inventory:
      entries:
      - inventory
  execution-environment:
    container-engine: docker
    enabled: true
    environment-variables:
      pass:
        - VAULT_TOKEN
    image: REDACTED
    pull:
       policy: always
    container-options:
      - '--entrypoint='
      - '--network=host'
      - '--user=root'
  mode: stdout
  logging:
    level: debug
  playbook-artifact:
    enable: true
    save-as: playbook-artifacts/{playbook_name}-artifact-{time_stamp}.json

EXPECTED RESULTS

ansible-navigator run should execute step by step and prompt user at each step as is the case in ansible-playbooks. If --step mode is not supported then ansible-navigator run should cleanly exit and tell the user that flag is not supported with ansible-navigator run and this limitation should be documented.

ACTUAL RESULTS

ansible-navigator run hangs at the first step.
