ansible-playbook --check site.yml

Dry-run a playbook without changing hosts

Runs the playbook in check mode, reporting what each task would change without applying anything. Modules that support check mode simulate results, though raw commands still execute, so review carefully. Always check before a real run on important infrastructure.
