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 2 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 undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: www.checkov.io.

    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 `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • 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 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 credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

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

About this skill

What it does

The terraform-validator skill validates Terraform configuration files. It checks for syntax errors, missing required attributes, and adherence to best practices, ensuring configurations are ready for deployment. This helps prevent costly mistakes during infrastructure provisioning and management.

When to use it

  • Pre-deployment Checks: Validate Terraform code before applying changes to your infrastructure.
  • CI/CD Pipelines: Integrate validation into automated pipelines to enforce configuration quality.
  • Code Reviews: Use the skill to automatically check Terraform files during code review processes.
  • Configuration Audits: Regularly audit existing Terraform configurations for potential issues and compliance.

Key capabilities

  • Syntax Validation: Identifies syntax errors in Terraform files.
  • Attribute Checks: Ensures all required attributes are present.
  • Best Practices Enforcement: Validates against recommended Terraform coding standards (details not specified).

Example prompts

  • "Validate this Terraform file and report any errors."
  • "Check the main.tf file for missing attributes."
  • "Run a configuration audit on all Terraform files in the /environments/staging directory."

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires Terraform to be installed and configured within the environment where the skill is executed.
