This is a well-crafted, concise skill that clearly sequences a manual validation workflow with appropriate checkpoints. Its main weakness is the lack of a concrete terraformrc example block, which is a non-obvious configuration that Claude would benefit from seeing verbatim. The gotchas section adds genuine value by preempting common misdiagnoses.
Suggestions
Add a concrete, copy-paste-ready example of the terraformrc file with dev_overrides block, since the exact syntax is easy to get wrong.
Include a minimal example .tf step file (e.g., steps/step1.tf) to make the multi-step scenario pattern fully executable.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Every sentence earns its place. No unnecessary explanations of what Terraform is or how providers work. The 'Why' section at the end is brief and justified. The gotchas are terse and high-value. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | The procedure gives concrete commands (make install, terraform apply, etc.) and specific paths, but lacks executable examples for the terraformrc content and the step file structure. The dev_overrides block is described but not shown, which is a key detail Claude would need to produce correctly. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear 6-step sequence with explicit validation checkpoints (terraform plan expecting 'No changes' for idempotency, verify in UI). Includes cleanup step and explains why multi-step scenarios need the steps/ directory pattern to avoid duplicate-resource errors. The feedback loop is implicit but clear: if plan doesn't show 'No changes', there's a regression. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | For a simple, single-purpose skill under 50 lines with no need for external references, the content is well-organized into clear sections (Trigger, Procedure, Gotchas, Why). No bundle files are needed for this scope. | 3 / 3 |
