Manage infrastructure through declarative code with sane module design, state hygiene, and plan-review discipline. Use when adopting Terraform-style IaC or refactoring a sprawling configuration.
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
# Infrastructure as code The repository is the source of truth; the cloud is a cache of it. Everything follows from defending that invariant: no console edits, no unreviewed applies, no state nobody owns. ## Method 1. **Structure as small root modules per blast radius.** One state per environment per subsystem (`prod/network`, `prod/database`, `staging/app`), not one monolithic state: applies stay fast, locks stay short, and a bad change cannot touch what its state does not hold. Compose from reusable child modules with explicit inputs/outputs. 2. **Design modules like APIs.** Few required variables, safe defaults (encryption on, public access off), validation blocks on inputs, documented outputs consumed by other stacks via remote state or data sources. A module needing 40 variables is a template, not an abstraction; split it. 3. **Guard the state like production data.** Remote backend with locking and versioning, encrypted, access-controlled (state contains secrets in plaintext more often than teams admit). Never edit state by hand; `state mv`/`import` for surgery, with a second person watching. …

How to install
mdr add amey-thakur/ai-skills/infrastructure-as-code@sha256:f7d486895780a865The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260720.3c9eba4, 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.
