UTILITY SKILL — INVOKES: tfpolicy-author | tfpolicy-test

USE FOR:

  • Writing a new .policy.hcl policy from a description or requirement
  • Converting a .sentinel policy to Terraform Policy
  • Writing or debugging a .policytest.hcl test file
  • Migrating a Sentinel policy library to Terraform Policy

DO NOT USE FOR:

  • Writing .tftest.hcl files for Terraform modules — use terraform-test
  • General Terraform HCL authoring — use terraform-style-guide

Routing

| Task | Sub-skill |

|------|-----------|

| Write or convert a .policy.hcl policy | tfpolicy-author |

| Write or debug a .policytest.hcl test | tfpolicy-test |

Examples

  • "Block EC2 instances without encryption" → tfpolicy-author
  • "Convert this Sentinel policy to tfpolicy" → tfpolicy-author
  • "Write a policytest for my EBS policy" → tfpolicy-test

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take hashicorp/terraform-policy 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.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference npx. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
