I'd build this as a rake task (then it all runs on the server, or your
workstation, and you can test it, etc) and then simply call it from Capistrano.
You're missing something fundamental in that anything outside of `run` happens
on *your machine*, and anything in `run/capture()` runs on the server you are
connected to. So, in your example, you're collecting a list of files which
don't exist on your machine, and then running a task (with an empty list) on
your server.
You'd be better served adding a Raketask to your application (rails uses `rake
db:seed`, for loading runtime fixtures, for example) and then simply calling
that when you do the deployment.
