On the tdp deploy command, the --run-directory option is used to define the working directory when spawning a subprocess to execute an Ansible command (using subprocess.Popen). If no directory is provided, the subprocess uses the parent process directory.

We made both the --run-directory option mandatory on the cli AND the run_directory parameter optional on the core. Should we keep this behavior, ensure that the working directory is provided or make it entirely optional?

If we choose to keep this behavior, we should at least remove the following condition in the deploy command (as the run_directory is required):

Executor(
    run_directory=run_directory.absolute() if run_directory else None,
    # ...
),
