Description

I deployed an application to Fargate. Then I wanted to run ECS Exec against the running service/task. It turns out I would have to make adjustments to my running resources through the AWS CLI (and to the Task role) in order to enable running ECS Exec commands.

**Describe the solution you'd like**

When I deploy to Fargate, it would be great if I had the option to enable ECS Exec support.

Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by locating the Fargate deployment path and its task-role configuration, then determine where an ECS Exec option belongs. Done means a deployment can enable ECS Exec without manual AWS CLI or task-role adjustments, with verification against the deployed service or task.
