provider-configuration
From the author
Implement Terraform provider configuration and authentication with the Plugin Framework: provider schema for credentials (Optional + Sensitive attributes), environment variable fallbacks, credential provider chains (static config, then environment variables, shared credentials file, and platform identity), unknown-value guards in Configure(), secret redaction, configure-time credential validation, and diagnostics that name every source tried. Use when implementing or reviewing a provider's Configure method or provider schema, adding authentication options (API keys, tokens, profiles, credentials files, assume-role), deciding how a provider should resolve credentials, debugging "no valid credential sources" or missing-credentials errors, or unit testing credential resolution.

- provider-resourceshashicorp/agent-skillsImplement Terraform Provider resources and data sources using the Plugin Framework: CRUD operations, schema design, plan modifiers and validators, not-found handling, waiters for eventually consistent APIs, import support, resource design principles, and required acceptance test coverage. Use when adding or changing a resource or data source, deciding whether an API concept should be a resource, wiring a resource to the provider's configured client, handling drift or resource-not-found, or reviewing a resource implementation before submission.OfficialTesting★ 903
- provider-test-patternshashicorp/agent-skillsTerraform provider acceptance test patterns using terraform-plugin-testing with the Plugin Framework. Covers test structure, TestCase/TestStep fields, ConfigStateChecks with custom statecheck.StateCheck implementations, plan checks, CompareValue for cross-step assertions, config helpers, import testing with ImportStateKind, sweepers, and scenario patterns (basic, update, disappears, validation, regression), and ephemeral resource testing with the echoprovider package. Use when writing, reviewing, or debugging provider acceptance tests, including questions about statecheck, plancheck, TestCheckFunc, CheckDestroy, ExpectError, import state verification, ephemeral resources, or how to structure test files.OfficialTesting★ 903
- provider-ephemeral-resourceshashicorp/agent-skillsImplement Terraform provider ephemeral resources with the Plugin Framework: the Open/Renew/Close lifecycle, ephemeral schema design, registration via EphemeralResources, renewal for expiring credentials, and how ephemeral values flow into write-only attributes and provider configuration. Use when adding an ephemeral resource, exposing secrets/tokens/certificates that must never persist in state or plan, deciding between an ephemeral resource and a data source, or wiring short-lived credentials from one provider into another.OfficialDevOps★ 903
- new-terraform-providerhashicorp/agent-skillsUse this when scaffolding a new Terraform provider with the Plugin Framework: workspace layout, go module setup, provider server main.go, and a provider.go with schema and Configure. Also use when a user wants to start building a provider for a new API or asks how to begin a terraform-provider-* project.OfficialDevOps★ 903
- provider-actionshashicorp/agent-skillsImplement Terraform Provider actions using the Plugin Framework. Use when developing imperative operations that execute at lifecycle events (before/after create, update, destroy).OfficialDevOps★ 903
- provider-framework-migrationhashicorp/agent-skillsMigrate Terraform provider resources and data sources from Plugin SDKv2 to the Plugin Framework: muxing both plugins in one provider (terraform-plugin-mux, tf5to6server), per-resource migration workflow, SDKv2-to-Framework schema mapping (ForceNew, ValidateFunc, DiffSuppressFunc, Default, Timeouts, blocks), null-vs-zero-value behavioral traps, and state-compatibility verification. Use when converting or translating SDKv2 resources to the Framework, setting up a muxed provider server, deciding whether a resource should be migrated at all, or debugging plan diffs and state errors that appeared after a migration.OfficialDevOps★ 903
