terraform-policyWrite, test, or convert Terraform Policy files (.policy.hcl, .policytest.hcl, Sentinel→tfpolicy). Triggers: policy.hcl, policytest, convert sentinel, tfpolicy, write a policy.0 installsprovider-ephemeral-resourcesImplement Terraform provider ephemeral resources with the Plugin Framework: the Open/Renew/Close lifecycle, ephemeral schema design, registration via EphemeralResources, renewal for expiring credentials, and how ephemeral values flow into write-only attributes and provider configuration. Use when adding an ephemeral resource, exposing secrets/tokens/certificates that must never persist in state or plan, deciding between an ephemeral resource and a data source, or wiring short-lived credentials from one provider into another.0 installsprovider-configurationImplement Terraform provider configuration and authentication with the Plugin Framework: provider schema for credentials (Optional + Sensitive attributes), environment variable fallbacks, credential provider chains (static config, then environment variables, shared credentials file, and platform identity), unknown-value guards in Configure(), secret redaction, configure-time credential validation, and diagnostics that name every source tried. Use when implementing or reviewing a provider's Configure method or provider schema, adding authentication options (API keys, tokens, profiles, credentials files, assume-role), deciding how a provider should resolve credentials, debugging "no valid credential sources" or missing-credentials errors, or unit testing credential resolution.0 installsprovider-framework-migrationMigrate Terraform provider resources and data sources from Plugin SDKv2 to the Plugin Framework: muxing both plugins in one provider (terraform-plugin-mux, tf5to6server), per-resource migration workflow, SDKv2-to-Framework schema mapping (ForceNew, ValidateFunc, DiffSuppressFunc, Default, Timeouts, blocks), null-vs-zero-value behavioral traps, and state-compatibility verification. Use when converting or translating SDKv2 resources to the Framework, setting up a muxed provider server, deciding whether a resource should be migrated at all, or debugging plan diffs and state errors that appeared after a migration.0 installswindows-builderBuild Windows images with Packer using WinRM communicator and PowerShell provisioners.

provider-resourcesImplement Terraform Provider resources and data sources using the Plugin Framework: CRUD operations, schema design, plan modifiers and validators, not-found handling, waiters for eventually consistent APIs, import support, resource design principles, and required acceptance test coverage. Use when adding or changing a resource or data source, deciding whether an API concept should be a resource, wiring a resource to the provider's configured client, handling drift or resource-not-found, or reviewing a resource implementation before submission.0 installsprovider-test-patternsTerraform provider acceptance test patterns using terraform-plugin-testing with the Plugin Framework. Covers test structure, TestCase/TestStep fields, ConfigStateChecks with custom statecheck.StateCheck implementations, plan checks, CompareValue for cross-step assertions, config helpers, import testing with ImportStateKind, sweepers, and scenario patterns (basic, update, disappears, validation, regression), and ephemeral resource testing with the echoprovider package. Use when writing, reviewing, or debugging provider acceptance tests, including questions about statecheck, plancheck, TestCheckFunc, CheckDestroy, ExpectError, import state verification, ephemeral resources, or how to structure test files.0 installsprovider-actionsImplement Terraform Provider actions using the Plugin Framework. Use when developing imperative operations that execute at lifecycle events (before/after create, update, destroy).0 installsaws-ami-builderBuild Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) with Packer using the amazon-ebs builder.

Use when adding or changing provider configuration, resources, data sources, ephemeral resources, list resources, functions, actions, or guides; when validating generated docs; and when troubleshooting missing or incorrect Registry documentation.0 installs

Frequently asked questions about run-acceptance-tests

What does the run-acceptance-tests skill do?

Guide for running acceptance tests for a Terraform provider. Use this when asked to run an acceptance test or to run a test with the prefix `TestAcc`, when a test fails with missing environment variables, or when diagnosing a failing or suspiciously passing acceptance test. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.

How do I install the run-acceptance-tests skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install hashicorp-run-acceptance-tests` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/hashicorp-run-acceptance-tests/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does run-acceptance-tests work with?

run-acceptance-tests runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the run-acceptance-tests skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use run-acceptance-tests after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/hashicorp-run-acceptance-tests` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the run-acceptance-tests skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
