What it does

Terraform is a tool that describes cloud infrastructure (networks, databases, Kubernetes clusters, storage) as code. This skill teaches the agent a standard way to write reusable Terraform 'modules', which are packaged blocks of infrastructure code that can be reused across projects. Once installed, the agent suggests a consistent folder layout, input validation, outputs, pinned provider versions, examples and Terratest tests, with sample code for AWS VPCs and reference notes for AWS and OCI modules.

Great for

  • Platform or DevOps engineers who want to standardize how their team provisions cloud resources
  • Developers building reusable infrastructure components across several projects or clouds
  • Teams starting a new internal Terraform module library and wanting a consistent structure

Skip it if

  • People who only need to run an existing Terraform configuration: the skill focuses on authoring modules, not operating live infrastructure
  • Anyone expecting the agent to apply changes to a real cloud account safely: the skill's example tests run terraform apply and destroy against real cloud resources, which can incur cost and cause outages if pointed at production

Try asking

  • “Create a reusable Terraform module for an AWS VPC with private subnets and validated CIDR inputs”
  • “Scaffold a standard module folder with main.tf, variables.tf, outputs.tf, versions.tf, examples and Terratest tests”
  • “Show me how to structure an OCI Virtual Cloud Network module for our team”
  • “Review my Terraform module against infrastructure-as-code best practices”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Ask the agent to target one cloud at a time, and mention your provider and region so the examples match your setup
  • Run terraform plan and Terratest against a sandbox account, never production, before trusting generated modules
  • Check the referenced aws-modules.md and oci-modules.md files for provider-specific details, since the skill's examples are illustrative and may need updating for current provider versions
