System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the chaos of inconsistent cloud resource naming and tagging, which leads to confusion, security risks, and billing inaccuracies. It enforces a standardized, predictable, and auditable system for naming and labeling all cloud infrastructure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Naming Convention: Generates resource names based on a defined pattern (<team>-<env>[-<scope>]-<name>[-<function>][-<suffix>]).
  • Mandatory Tagging: Ensures essential tags (owner, environment, project, cost_center, managed_by) are applied to every resource.
  • Cost Center Validation: Enforces a closed list of valid cost centers at terraform plan time, preventing billing errors.
  • Use Case: When provisioning new AWS or GCP resources via Terraform, this Skill ensures every resource is named consistently, tagged correctly for ownership and cost allocation, and adheres to company-wide standards, preventing sprawl and simplifying cost management.

Quick Start

Use the naming-and-labeling-as-code skill to generate a Terraform module for resource naming and tagging.
