Terraform and OpenTofu orchestration: plan/apply/deploy, workspace management, backend config, varfile generation, authentication, binary selection (terraform/tofu), mixed-binary setups

Native Helm components (experimental): Helm Go SDK rendering/apply/delete, components.helm, chart sources (local/repo/OCI), values, repositories, helm plugin, provision targets, and how this differs from Helmfile

This skill helps you migrate a repository to Atmos. It covers native Terraform, Terraform Workspaces, Terramate, Terragrunt, Makefiles, Justfiles, and Taskfiles. It gives minimum-disruption paths, file-layout options, workspace mapping, task-to-command…

YAML functions: !terraform.state, !terraform.output, !store, !store.get, !secret, !emulator, !env, !exec, !include, !template, !append, !unset, !literal, !random, !aws.*, !git.*, !cwd, !repo-root

Introspection & Querying: describe/list commands, config filtering, workspace introspection, dependency graphs, YQ integration, --help=<topic> scoped CLI help

Blog post authoring for Atmos: MDX template, frontmatter, website/blog/tags.yml and authors.yml rules, problem-first framing, backtick-opening ban, optional cast embeds, and no-Go-internals leakage. Invoke when writing, editing, or reviewing a…

Bootstrapping new Atmos projects with atmos init: built-in template catalog, differences from atmos scaffold generate, project record, and update-safe 3-way merge

Scaffold templates: authoring scaffold.yaml, form fields (types, validation, conditional when:), conditional file generation, step-backed hooks (pre/post-generate), update-safe 3-way merge, and atmos scaffold generate/list/validate

Use when creating new Terraform/OpenTofu components or modifying existing ones. Covers required files, catalog defaults, stack configuration, and naming conventions.

Use when authenticating with AWS via Atmos. Covers ATMOS_PROFILE setup, SSO login, and how Atmos automatically assumes the correct identity per stack. Use for authentication setup, SSO login issues, and permission errors.

Use when deploying components via Atmos stacks, configuring stack YAML, or understanding inheritance patterns. Covers catalog defaults, abstract components, stack imports, and how to wire components into target stacks.
