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.
