The instruction itself

as written by the author

To scaffold a new Terraform provider with Plugin Framework:

  • If I am already in a Terraform provider workspace, then confirm that I want

to create a new workspace. If I do not want to create a new workspace, then

skip all remaining steps.

  • Create a new workspace root directory. The root directory name should be

prefixed with "terraform-provider-". Perform all subsequent steps in this

new workspace.

  • Initialize a new Go module..
  • Run go get -u github.com/hashicorp/terraform-plugin-framework@latest.
  • Write a main.go file that follows the example.
  • Remove TODO comments from main.go
  • Run go mod tidy
  • Run go build -o /dev/null
  • Run go test ./...

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take hashicorp/new-terraform-provider from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
