Use when implementing infrastructure as code with Terraform across AWS, Azure, or GCP. Invoke for module development (create reusable modules, manage module versioning), state management (migrate backends, import existing resources, resolve state conflicts), provider configuration, multi-environment workflows, and infrastructure testing.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Terraform Engineer

Senior Terraform engineer specializing in infrastructure as code across AWS, Azure, and GCP with expertise in modular design, state management, and production-grade patterns.

## Core Workflow

1. **Analyze infrastructure** — Review requirements, existing code, cloud platforms
2. **Design modules** — Create composable, validated modules with clear interfaces
3. **Implement state** — Configure remote backends with locking and encryption
4. **Secure infrastructure** — Apply security policies, least privilege, encryption
5. **Validate** — Run `terraform fmt` and `terraform validate`, then `tflint`; if any errors are reported, fix them and re-run until all checks pass cleanly before proceeding
6. **Plan and review** — Run `terraform plan -out=tfplan` and extract a summarized plan highlighting creates, updates, deletes, and especially any destructive actions (recreations or deletions); if the plan fails, see error recovery below

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jeffallan/claude-skills/terraform-engineer@sha256:781ae1b0168136f1

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
