@subhadip18 thank you for the contribution! Would you be willing to trim the PR? We are looking to reduce context bloat as possible So wherever for instance your PR references other services that we support in other skills, we can chop! |

@calreynolds: Since this is for Terraform skill, we do not have any existing skill which cover Terraform specific skills yet. |

Hey @subhadip18! Thank you for contributing! We chatted about this with the team and decided we're going to separate out anything infra\networking related from the direct ai-dev-kit. Since our personas here are on-platform developers for the most part, we don't necessarily want to encourage them to handle their company's infra! We think this could work its way nicely into a service like vibe or internal vibecoding project 👍 |
