Is it possible to deploy the agent via push-based, then have it turn on pull-based?

Hi team 👋🏻

I'm looking at setting up a kind of Argo-of-Argos for our clusters, where I would use 1 instance to deploy Argo onto other instances (which would then deploy our apps etc).

Scale is going to become an issue at some point - and the Agent sounds perfect. However, I'm curious how I could get the Agent onto the cluster without having to manually deploy it somehow.

Is it possible to use the "parent" argo instance to deploy the agent and then have the Agent do that flips the cluster into pull-based mode? Or even have a post-upgrade/post-install hook or something that would do so?

At the moment we deploy Argo and other bits with Terraform, which I don't enjoy. If I can avoid having to drop anything onto the cluster except via a central Argo instance (to bootstrap it's own Argo instance), that's ideal!
