When using ssm.StringParameter.valueFromLookup() I would like to have the option to not store the value of the parameter in the cdk context so the parameter is resolved every time that I synth.

Use Case

In particular, I store the value of which ECR Image Tag should be deployed in my Task Definition for my Fargate Service. Currently, if I forget to cdk context --reset ... then I can potentially deploy a previous version of the application. If I was able to skip storing the value in the context I would not have to manage this risk.

Proposed Solution

ssm.StringParameter.valueFromLookup(this, '/my/ssm/parameter', { skipContext: true });
