Terraform State Manager

This skill guides you through safe Terraform state manipulation operations.

When to Use

• Importing existing cloud resources into Terraform management (terraform import)
• Renaming resources or moving them into/out of modules (terraform state mv)
• Removing resources from Terraform control without destroying them (terraform state rm)
• Migrating state between backends (e.g., local to GCS/S3)
• Fixing state locks or corruption
