What it does

Terraform AWS Modules is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Terraform module creation for AWS — reusable modules, state management, and HCL best practices. Use when building or reviewing Terraform AWS infrastructure.

Its SKILL.md is about 700 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `skill-report.json`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Infrastructure as code. It works with Terraform and Amazon Web Services. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing Terraform AWS infrastructure
  • Tasks that involve Infrastructure as code

Example prompts

  • “/terraform-aws-modules”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Structure modules with clear variables.tf, outputs.tf, main.tf, and versions.tf.
  2. Pin provider and module versions to avoid breaking changes.
  3. Use remote state (S3 + DynamoDB locking) for team environments.
  4. Apply terraform fmt and terraform validate before commits.
  5. Use for_each over count for resources that need stable identity.
  6. Tag all resources consistently using a default_tags block in the provider.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 755bc35. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • terraform

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Terraform AWS Modules loads about 698 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 257 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~698

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 257 words (~698 tokens).

“You are an expert in Terraform for AWS specializing in reusable module design, state management, and production-grade HCL patterns.”
