   > However, `--retry-cached-failures` is still tricky since we might not have the build dependencies and sources for the element if we just pulled a failed artifact. This is also why we don't have a nice story for retrying cached failures even in the interactive mode. Once we solve it though, I don't think interactivs vs. non-interactive mode would be that different.
   
   Ideally, we wouldn't pull a cached failure in this mode. But I guess we need to pull at least the proto to know whether it is a failure. Either way, I just tried retrying a failed build (interactively) and it just works fine, dependencies and sources were already there event hough I started from scratch, so no worry about this.
   
   For the option name, I think it's better to call it `--ignore-cached-failures` rather than retry. It would also ignore them when pulling.
