Guides adding a new Terraform resource or data source end-to-end — SDK update, schema, CRUD, provider registration, tests, and formatting. Use when creating a new resource_*.go or data_source_*.go file, or when the user asks to add a new Terraform resource.
Correct field to use for item descriptions in Read functions — ItemMetadata for DescribeItem, Description for specific Get endpoints. Use when implementing or reviewing d.Set("description", ...) in resource read functions.
Pattern for Terraform resource import functions — dedicated per-file import func that delegates to Read. Use when adding an Importer to a resource, implementing terraform import support, or reviewing import functions.
Create test fixture dependencies (keys, issuers, targets, secrets) via SDK API calls in test setup, not via Terraform depends_on. Use when writing or reviewing acceptance tests that need pre-existing items, or when a test fails because a Terraform resource references an item that doesn't exist.
Guides updating an existing Terraform resource or data source with new fields or functionality — schema changes, CRUD updates, backward compatibility, and docs regeneration. Use when adding fields to an existing resource_*.go or data_source_*.go file.
