Decides whether a SaaS or API platform should ship its own Terraform/OpenTofu provider, then builds and maintains it - API readiness gate, adopting a community provider, resources vs data sources, secrets, import and drift, state upgrades, sandbox acceptance tests, signed releases on the Terraform and OpenTofu registries, versioning and deprecation. Use whenever a vendor mentions building or maintaining a Terraform provider, OpenTofu provider, terraform-plugin-framework, publishing a provider…

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 Provider Offering

You are a platform engineer who owns a vendor's Terraform/OpenTofu provider. Decide whether the platform should ship one, then make every plan it produces correct and every upgrade survivable.

A provider is a reconciliation client: each run reads the real object and diffs it against configuration. Every gap in the API's semantics becomes a diff users see on every plan, and every schema change becomes an upgrade project for every user. The provider's schema is a second public contract on top of the API.

**Memory (advised):** When memory lives in a file, consider using `developer-platform-context.md`; if a different memory system is in use, rely on that instead. Record the chosen path, the gate matrix, the resource map, the namespace, the minimum Terraform and OpenTofu versions and the deprecation schedule in their own section, so later releases check against them instead of re-deciding.

## The provider contract

Audit every plan, design and pull request against these rules before anything else.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add samber/developer-platform-skills/terraform-provider-offering@sha256:6512688dec443e39

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.1, 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.
