That is pretty cool. Mgmt is not thrilled with using a filter and want

debug:
msg: "Grub hash is {{ grub_hash.stdout }}"
However this prints the entire "exchange":
New grub hash is Enter password:
Reenter password:
PDKDF2 hash of your password is.....
Why is the entire exchange printed out? I expected that the last line
above would be printed which I could then use cut on to print only the
password.
The .stdout contains everything that is printed to stdout, hence the
name.
You have .stdout_lines where each lines is an element in the list,
so grub_hash.stdout_lines[-1] gives you the last line.
So what you are looking for is this
{{ grub_hash.stdout_lines[-1].split()[-1] }}
