SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires terraform, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill executes reviewed or on-the-fly Terraform plans to turn configuration changes into real cloud infrastructure changes, eliminating manual CLI steps and reducing human error during deployments.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Saved-plan workflow for production: apply a previously generated and reviewed plan to ensure you deploy exactly what was inspected.
  • Automatic-plan workflow for development and ad-hoc changes with optional auto-approve for CI/CD automation.
  • Support for variable files, targeted resource application, forced replacements, parallelism tuning, non-interactive flags, and JSON output for machine consumption.
  • Use case: run in a CI pipeline to initialize a workspace, generate a plan, and apply the saved plan to provision or update cloud resources reliably.

Quick Start

Initialize the Terraform working directory, produce or provide a saved plan file, and apply the saved plan to perform the reviewed infrastructure changes without interactive prompts.

FAQPage Schema
How do I apply a saved Terraform plan in a CI/CD pipeline without interactive prompts?▼

Applying a reviewed Terraform plan in CI/CD uses non-interactive automation flags to execute the saved plan file, eliminating manual CLI steps and human error during infrastructure deployments.

What is the difference between saved-plan and automatic-plan workflows in Terraform?▼

A saved-plan workflow applies a previously generated and reviewed plan for production safety, while an automatic-plan workflow handles development or ad-hoc changes with optional auto-approve for CI/CD automation.

Can I target specific cloud resources for updates or destruction during a Terraform apply?▼

You can target specific cloud resources for updates or teardown during a Terraform apply using targeted resource application features, alongside tuning parallelism and forcing resource replacements.

How do I use variable files when deploying infrastructure with Terraform?▼

Using variable files when deploying infrastructure passes configurations into the execution workflow, supporting provisioning and updates across local development and production environments.

Does Terraform apply emit machine-readable JSON output for downstream systems?▼

Terraform apply emits JSON output for machine consumption, allowing downstream systems to consume the results of cloud infrastructure provisioning, updates, or teardown workflows.
