@Willem Basson docs for remote execution in foreman: https://theforeman.org/plugins/foreman_remote_execution/1.7/index.html

that right there is probably all I need
I have a fairly complicate bolt plan to upgrade mariadb from one version to another. it includes subplans to verify a recent off-server backup, free space, etc, then makes a mariabackup, swops apt sources, does the package installs and a mariadb_upgrade as per the manuals, then a puppet run. would I be able to execute all of that from a web gui, against a fact-driven inventory in a similar way as that page shows how to run ping? with a way for me or others to track progress?

It can do that in general, but it has no native bolt support yet. but you can enter the shell args to run bolt. If there's enough demand (and maybe a sponsor) we will built the bolt integration
https://theforeman.org/introduction.html has also a nice overview of all features and the puppet support in foreman
'native bolt' here means getting a list of all available bolt tasks/plans, offfering them in the Web UI/API for execution

thank you
