Workflow specifically for creating a new resource, supporting both autogen and manual generation.
# `new-resource-workflow` This document guides the agent through the task of creating a new Terraform resource in Magic Modules. ## Generation Options There are two ways to generate the initial YAML definition for the resource: 1. **Autogen Subagent (Default):** Use this method if an OpenAPI specification is available for the resource. 2. **Manual Generation:** Create the YAML definition directly if no spec is available or if it requires custom crafting. --- ## Execution Steps ### 1. Prompt for OpenAPI Specification (Default Path) * Ask the user to provide the OpenAPI specification file (or its path) for the new resource. * **Note:** If no OpenAPI specification is available, state that you will fall back to the **Manual Path (Step 2B)** to draft the YAML directly, and ask for the user's confirmation to proceed. * If the user provides the spec, proceed to **Step 2A (Autogen Path)**. ### 2A. Autogen Path * **Action:** Invoke the `autogen` subagent to handle the generation and initial testing. * **Prompt:** "Use the OpenAPI spec to generate the new resource. Run tests and report back." * Wait for the subagent to return its report. * **Handoff:** - If the subagent reports that tests passed successfully, present the results to the user. - If the subagent reports test failures, enter the **Default Workflow** ([default/SKILL.md](../default/SKILL.md)) at **Step 5 (Fix)** to plan remediation. ### 2B. Manual Path * Consult `.agents/knowledge/index.md` for the topics the resource touches and open the relevant sources. * Follow the standard process to draft the YAML definition in `mmv1/products/...` based on API documentation and repository patterns. * **Handoff:** Once the YAML is drafted, enter the **Default Workflow** ([default/SKILL.md](../default/SKILL.md)) at **Step 3 (Generate)** to compile the provider and continue with testing.
