terraform-plan-review

What problem does it solve?

Manually parsing raw Terraform plan and apply output is time-consuming and error-prone, with high-risk changes like resource destroys or hidden state drift easy to miss. This skill eliminates that manual effort by turning raw Terraform output into clear, actionable summaries.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Automated Terraform Workflow Checks: Runs terraform fmt, validate, and plan in the correct order to catch formatting issues, configuration errors, and unexpected changes upfront.
• High-Risk Change Flagging: Explicitly calls out destroy and replace operations, along with the attributes forcing replacement, to help you avoid accidental data loss.
• Intelligent Failure Triage: Categorizes validate/plan/apply errors into permissions gaps, state drift, or real configuration bugs, with targeted, safe fixes for each category.
• Use Case: If you are managing Azure infrastructure with Terraform and a plan fails with a 403 AuthorizationFailed error, this skill will identify it as a missing RBAC permission for the executing identity instead of a code bug, saving hours of unnecessary debugging.

Quick Start

Use the terraform-plan-review skill to run a Terraform plan for your Azure infrastructure project and get a summary of all changes and any flagged high-risk items.
