What is infrastructure drift?

Infrastructure drift occurs when the actual state of your cloud resources deviates from the defined configuration in your code, often caused by manual updates or script failures.

Does this skill automatically fix the detected drift?

This skill focuses on detection and reporting; however, the insights provided allow you to use other DevOps tools to perform automated remediation.

Why is regular drift detection important?

It prevents security vulnerabilities from unmanaged changes, ensures disaster recovery configurations are accurate, and maintains environmental consistency.

How does this skill detect drift?

The skill utilizes the 'drift-detect' command to compare the live infrastructure against your desired state files and provides a report on the differences.

Deployment & DevOps

Detects and reports discrepancies between your live infrastructure and its defined desired state in configuration files.

About

This skill empowers developers and DevOps engineers to maintain infrastructure integrity by automatically identifying drift between deployed resources and code definitions like Terraform. By executing the drift-detect command, Claude analyzes your environment to uncover undocumented changes, manual overrides, or missed updates, ensuring that production environments remain consistent, secure, and fully compliant with your version-controlled configurations.

Key Features

Identification of manual overrides and 'snowflake' configurations
Integration-ready data for automated remediation workflows
Automated drift analysis using the drift-detect command
Detailed reporting on resource-level configuration discrepancies
Support for Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) verification
0 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Generating comprehensive drift reports during routine DevOps maintenance windows
Auditing cloud infrastructure for unauthorized or manual configuration changes
Verifying that production environments match Terraform or CloudFormation definitions
