Why does the skill recommend root.hcl instead of terragrunt.hcl?

In accordance with official Terragrunt migration guides, using root.hcl for the top-level configuration is the modern best practice to distinguish it from child module configurations.

How does it handle production safety?

The skill can generate 'exclude' blocks to prevent accidental destruction of critical resources and 'errors' blocks to implement advanced retry logic for transient provider issues.

Does this skill support the latest Terragrunt features?

Yes, it fully supports modern features released in 2025, including Stacks (terragrunt.stack.hcl), Feature Flags for runtime control, and the OpenTofu engine.

Can I use this for complex multi-environment setups?

Absolutely. It includes three distinct architecture patterns (A, B, and C) to handle environment-agnostic roots, environment-aware detection, or centralized shared variable directories.

Deployment & DevOps

Automates the creation of production-ready Terragrunt configurations following 2025 best practices and modern architecture patterns.

The Terragrunt Generator skill empowers DevOps engineers and developers to architect robust Infrastructure as Code (IaC) setups using the latest Terragrunt features. It streamlines the generation of root and child HCL configurations, supporting modern 2025 standards such as Stacks, Feature Flags, and the OpenTofu engine. By offering predefined architecture patterns—including environment-agnostic roots and shared variable structures—the skill ensures that infrastructure remains DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself), scalable, and compliant with current security standards while automating complex tasks like error handling and execution control.

Key Features

01Full support for 2025 features including Terragrunt Stacks and Feature Flags.

02Implements advanced execution control with Exclude and Errors blocks.
