Copilot configuration with limited aws account access

[buddhike]

Hey team,
In some environments, developers have limited access to aws accounts. Is it possible to run commands such as copilot app init without access to an account and rely on an automation to do the actual work? I think that this is possible if we manually add manifest files to workspace. IMHO, being able to run the cli this way would simplify this scaffolding step.
Thoughts? 🙏🏾
