# IaC Generator Skill

Generates Infrastructure as Code from existing infrastructure, supporting Terraform, CloudFormation, and other IaC frameworks.

## Purpose

Enable infrastructure codification for:
- Resource discovery
- Terraform/CloudFormation generation
- Module structuring
- Variable extraction
- State management setup

## Capabilities

### 1. Resource Discovery
- Scan cloud accounts
- Discover existing resources
- Map relationships
- Document configurations

### 2. Terraform/CloudFormation Generation
- Generate HCL/YAML code
- Create resource definitions
- Handle dependencies
- Support multiple clouds

### 3. Module Structuring
- Organize into modules
- Create reusable components
- Design folder structure
- Handle environments

### 4. Variable Extraction
- Extract configurable values
- Create variable files
- Document defaults
- Handle secrets

### 5. State Management Setup
- Configure remote state
- Set up locking
- Handle state imports
- Manage workspaces

### 6. Best Practice Enforcement
- Apply naming conventions
- Tag resources
- Implement security controls
- Add monitoring
