Yes, I could do that, but I disagree with your characterization of the
request.

GoCD claims to be a CI/CD tool.  While there are definitely classes of apps
that don't need anything other than a single server on which to build and
run its integration tests, there are just as certainly classes of apps
where that is not sufficient.  And, I can't think of any apps right now
where deployment simply means "run build script on remote server".

So, I don't feel like what I'm asking for is "random admin tasks", rather I
feel like it's an integral part of handling the deployment and, in many
cases, integration testing of an app.  If not, what differentiates a CI/CD
system from a build server?
