Preview an Infrastructure-as-Code change WITHOUT applying it. Runs `bin/iac-plan.sh`, which detects the repo's IaC tool (terraform, opentofu, aws-cdk, pulumi, helm, kubernetes, kustomize, ansible), shells out to the user's already-authenticated CLI, and renders a normalized add/change/destroy summary. READ-ONLY — it never mutates infrastructure. TRIGGER when the user says "terraform plan", "preview my infra change", "what will this deploy", "cdk diff", "pulumi preview", "show me the terraform diff", "dry-run the infra change", "what would terraform/tofu/cdk/pulumi do", "plan the infrastructure", "kubectl diff", "helm diff", "what does this deploy change", "/nyann:plan". DISAMBIGUATION — fire ONLY for IaC plan intent on a detected infra repo. Do NOT trigger on the bare word "plan": this is NOT project planning, NOT sprint/roadmap planning, NOT `sc:*` task planning, NOT Claude's ExitPlanMode / "make a plan" for code work. "plan a feature", "plan my week", "let's plan the refactor" → ignore. Require an infra signal (a tool name like terraform/tofu/cdk/pulumi/helm/kubectl, OR the word "infra"/"infrastructure"/"deploy", OR a detected `iac.tool` in the stack descriptor). With no infra signal, do NOT trigger. To apply the change after previewing, that's `/nyann:apply` (the iac-apply skill) — iac-plan never applies.

From the source SKILL.md

Wraps bin/iac-plan.sh. It detects the repo's iac.tool, dispatches to the per-tool adapter (bin/iac-plan/<tool>.sh), captures whatever machine-readable plan the tool offers, and emits a normalized IacPlan JSON on stdout (schema: schemas/iac-plan.schema.json). This skill is READ-ONLY: it previews, it never applies. To apply, hand off to /nyann:apply.

What this skill does

IAC Plan is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the prd-spec sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/iac-plan/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Who uses this skill

The IAC Plan Claude Code skill is built for product managers, product designers, and cross-functional teams planning, shipping, and measuring product features. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 191,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the IAC Plan Claude Code skill?
Install via the ClaudSkills desktop app (one click) or copy SKILL.md from the source repository to ~/.claude/skills/iac-plan/SKILL.md and restart Claude Code. Both flows are detailed at claudskills.com/install/.
What does the IAC Plan skill do?
Preview an Infrastructure-as-Code change WITHOUT applying it. Runs `bin/iac-plan.sh`, which detects the repo's IaC tool (terraform, opentofu, aws-cdk, pulumi, helm, kubernetes, kustomize, ansible), shells out to the user's already-authenticated CLI, and renders a normalized add/change/destroy summary.

TRIGGER when the user says "terraform plan", "preview my infra change", "what will this deploy", "cdk diff", "pulumi preview", "show me the terraform diff", "dry-run the infra change", "what would terraform/tofu/cdk/pulumi do", "plan the infrastructure", "kubectl diff", "helm diff", "what does this deploy change", "/nyann:plan". DISAMBIGUATION — fire ONLY for IaC plan intent on a detected infra repo. Do NOT trigger on the bare word "plan": this is NOT project planning, NOT sprint/roadmap planning, NOT `sc:*` task planning, NOT Claude's ExitPlanMode / "make a plan" for code work.

With no infra signal, do NOT trigger. To apply the change after previewing, that's `/nyann:apply` (the iac-apply skill) — iac-plan never applies.
Is this skill free to install?
Yes. ClaudSkills is an open registry — every skill keeps its source repository's license, and manual install via copy is free. ClaudSkills Pro ($9/mo, $79/yr, or $149 one-time) adds one-click install via the desktop app and a multi-signal Quality Score.
When should I use the IAC Plan skill?
Use IAC Plan when your Claude Code task falls under the Product category — specifically in the prd spec area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use IAC Plan" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/product/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the IAC Plan skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. IAC Plan is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Product category.
