You can pass your current environment variables to a remote execution with ssh by issuing:

env | ssh user@host remote_program

Also taken the example from here

on roles(:app), in: :sequence, wait: 5 do
  within "/opt/sites/example.com" do
    # commands in this block execute in the
    # directory: /opt/sites/example.com
    as :deploy  do
      # commands in this block execute as the "deploy" user.
      with rails_env: :production do
        # commands in this block execute with the environment
        # variable RAILS_ENV=production
        rake   "assets:precompile"
        runner "S3::Sync.notify"
      end
    end
  end
end

looks like you can use with set environment variables for your execution. So read your current environment variables and set them using with .
