Can it help with multi-region AWS or Azure deployments?

Yes, it provides patterns for using for_each in provider and component blocks to scale infrastructure across multiple regions efficiently.

What file extensions does this skill support?

This skill specializes in .tfcomponent.hcl (component configuration) and .tfdeploy.hcl (deployment configuration) files used specifically by Terraform Stacks.

How does this skill handle cloud authentication?

It provides guidance on configuring identity_token blocks for OIDC authentication, allowing secure access to AWS, Azure, and GCP without static credentials.

Can it automate the approval of deployment plans?

Yes, it supports the creation of deployment_auto_approve blocks that use logic checks (like context.plan.changes.remove == 0) to automate workflows.

What is the difference between a Component and a Deployment?

A Component is an abstraction of a Terraform module (the 'what'), while a Deployment is a specific instance of those components with unique inputs like region or environment (the 'where').

Cloud Infrastructure

Orchestrates complex, multi-region infrastructure at scale using HashiCorp Terraform Stacks and deployment-level configuration.

About

This skill provides specialized guidance for HashiCorp Terraform Stacks, a powerful configuration layer above traditional modules designed for infrastructure management at scale. It enables Claude to assist with writing and validating .tfcomponent.hcl and .tfdeploy.hcl files, managing multi-environment deployments, and configuring OIDC identity tokens for secure cloud access. By leveraging this skill, developers can implement advanced orchestration patterns like deployment groups, auto-approval rules, and cross-stack output publishing for sophisticated cloud architectures.

Key Features

Management of deployment groups and automated approval logic
Configuration of OIDC identity tokens for secure, passwordless cloud authentication
Expertise in multi-region and multi-environment infrastructure orchestration
Troubleshooting for component dependencies and stack-specific CLI commands
Full support for Stack Language syntax including .tfcomponent.hcl and .tfdeploy.hcl
2 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Provisioning consistent infrastructure across multiple global cloud regions using for_each patterns
Automating complex deployment workflows with health checks and auto-approval rules
Managing development, staging, and production environments within a single declarative stack
