Explanation

In Terraform Cloud, speculative plans are typically triggered in response to pull requests (PRs) to preview changes before merging. When a workspace is linked to a version control repository, commits or merges to the linked branch (e.g., main) trigger standard runs (plan and apply, if auto- apply is enabled), not speculative plans. Speculative plans are designed for pre-merge validation in PRs, not for post-merge or direct commits to the main branch.
