Install with your agent

Agent handoff

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.

  1. Download the package from Yavira.
  2. Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
  3. Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
New install

I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.

Upgrade existing

I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

State Management

Local state gets corrupted/lost — use remote backend (S3, GCS, Terraform Cloud) Multiple people running simultaneously — enable state locking with DynamoDB or equivalent Never edit state manually — use terraform state mv, rm, import State contains secrets in plain text — encrypt at rest, restrict access

Count vs for_each

count uses index — removing item 0 shifts all indices, forces recreation for_each uses keys — stable, removing one doesn't affect others Can't use both on same resource — choose one for_each requires set or map — toset() to convert list

Lifecycle Rules

prevent_destroy = true — blocks accidental deletion, must be removed to destroy create_before_destroy = true — new resource created before old destroyed, for zero downtime ignore_changes for external modifications — ignore_changes = [tags] ignores drift replace_triggered_by to force recreation — when dependency changes

Dependencies

Implicit via reference — aws_instance.foo.id creates automatic dependency depends_on for hidden dependencies — when reference isn't in config depends_on accepts list — depends_on = [aws_iam_role.x, aws_iam_policy.y] Data sources run during plan — may fail if resource doesn't exist yet

Data Sources

Data sources read existing resources — don't create Runs at plan time — dependency must exist before plan Use depends_on if implicit dependency not clear — or plan fails Consider using resource output instead — more explicit

Modules

Pin module versions — source = "org/name/aws?version=1.2.3" terraform init -upgrade to update — doesn't auto-update Module outputs must be explicitly defined — can't access internal resources from outside Nested modules: output must bubble up — each layer needs to export

Variables

No type = any — explicit type = string, list(string), map(object({...})) sensitive = true hides from output — but still in state file validation block for constraints — custom error message nullable = false to reject null — default is nullable

Common Mistakes

terraform destroy is permanent — no undo, use -target carefully Plan succeeded ≠ apply succeeds — API errors, quotas, permissions discovered at apply Renaming resource = delete + create — use moved block or terraform state mv Workspaces not for environments — use separate state files/backends per env Provisioners are last resort — use cloud-init, user_data, or config management instead

Import

terraform import aws_instance.foo i-1234 — imports existing resource to state Doesn't generate config — must write matching resource block manually import block (TF 1.5+) — declarative import in config Plan after import to verify — should show no changes if config matches

Category context

Trading, swaps, payments, treasury, liquidity, and crypto-financial operations.
