URI binaries/files

I usually use S3 to cache. Syntax to hit a URI for a binary or file instead of localpath? Syntax sugar to sign temp S3 files so you can execute on an S3 unprivileged remote.

What would cause a remote to be unprivileged when it has access to your local file system/environment variables? Are you trying to work around networking/firewall restrictions?

My use case it running the command in a given AWS Region. AWS S3 allows temporary signing of file URIs so the remote has temporary access to only the files it will need. The remote would be unprivileged - no access to any filesystem other than what it has on localhost.
