Terraform State And Secret Management

Category: Security  ·  Sub-category: security-misc  ·  Last updated:
tool:terraformtype:generatortype:review
Use when designing, reviewing, or hardening Terraform remote state and secret handling after the repo/module scaffold exists and security and infrastructure-platform have decided the state-isolation and secret posture. Produces remote state backend selection (S3+DynamoDB / GCS / Azure Storage / Terraform Cloud), state encryption at rest, state locking, workspace-vs-directory state isolation strategy, sensitive-output discipline, secret references to a secret manager instead of plaintext, and a no-committed-secrets posture. Do not use for repo/module layout, plan/policy gates, apply and promotion mechanics, or module registry/supply chain; use the other terraform archetype skills instead.

What this skill does

Terraform State And Secret Management is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the security-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/terraform-state-and-secret-management/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
