Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No credential access: failed

    Touches credential material in 1 place.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

    What it found

    • skills/terraform-engineer/references/providers.md:70AWS credentials file
      shared_credentials_files = ["~/.aws/credentials"]

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned jeffallan/claude-skills at 1be15d8064.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows an AI agent to generate Terraform configuration files. It can automate infrastructure provisioning and management, defining resources like virtual machines, networks, and storage accounts in a declarative way. The generated configurations are compatible with various cloud providers, enabling consistent deployments across different environments.

When to use it

  • Provisioning new development or testing environments quickly.
  • Automating the creation of cloud infrastructure for a new project.
  • Managing existing infrastructure by generating Terraform code from current state.
  • Creating repeatable and version-controlled infrastructure deployments.

Key capabilities

  • Generates Terraform configuration files.
  • Supports multiple cloud providers (implied).
  • Automates infrastructure provisioning.
  • Declarative resource definition.

Example prompts

  • "Generate a Terraform file to create an AWS EC2 instance with 2 vCPUs and 4GB of RAM."
  • "Create a Terraform configuration for deploying a Kubernetes cluster on Google Cloud Platform."
  • “Can you output the terraform code needed to deploy a database server?”

Tips & gotchas

The agent requires knowledge of cloud provider-specific resources and configurations. Providing clear instructions about desired resource properties is crucial for generating accurate and functional Terraform files.
