terraform-best-practices skillA
terraform-best-practices is agent-read markdown (skill) from kunanonj/ai-skills-hub: Quick reference for Terraform conventions including file organization, naming, modules, state, security, and anti-patterns. Use when writing or reviewing Terraform code..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Terraform Best Practices — Quick Reference
## File Organization
```
terraform/
live/ # Orchestration — providers, backend, module calls
terraform.tf # backend + provider (ONLY place for providers)
variables.tf # all input variables
locals.tf # computed values, remote state refs
outputs.tf # exported values
{resource-group}.tf # module invocations grouped by concern
modules/{name}/ # Reusable — no providers, no hardcoded values
main.tf # locals, data sources
variables.tf # inputs with descriptions + types
outputs.tf # consumed values only
versions.tf # required_providers
{resource}.tf # one file per resource type
envs/{env}/ # Per-environment config
state.config # backend partial config
terraform.tfvars # non-sensitive values
secrets.tfvars # sensitive values (gitignored)
```
## Naming
| Thing | Convention | Example |
|-------|-----------|---------|
| Resource prefix | `{project}-{service}-{env}` | `acme-payments-prod` |

Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
