  three:
    content:
      inline: |-
        {{ test }}
        {{ _decode "dGVzdA==" }}
    helpers:
      "_decode": printf "$(printf $VALUE | base64 -D)"
    variables:
      test:
        static: "test"

Key Behaviour Input
arg Expects input as argument via command line input None
env Retrieves value from the specified env var None
static Simply replaces the variable with a static value None
prompt Asks the user for text input (can be empty) The prompt
shell Invokes a shell command to resolve the variable (read from STDOUT) None
select Asks the user to select one item from a list text: string (context), options: list (available options to select from)
check Asks the user to select 0..n item(s) from a list (multiselect) text: string (context), options: list of options {display: str, value: str} (the available options to select from)

Since the shell value provider is able to run arbitrary shell commands, it is only allowed if and only if the SHELL_TRUST argument is explicitly set. See the render command reference for possible values for this setting. If not set, the provider will throw an unrecoverable error and the program will abort.
