Agentless IT automation: uses SSH and playbooks for configuration management, app deployment, cloud orchestration and ad hoc commands at scale, with nothing to install on target machines. Maintained primarily by Red Hat.

HashiCorp's infrastructure-as-code tool: manage multi-cloud and SaaS resources with declarative config, previewing changes with plan before running apply. Providers cover all major clouds. Licensed under BSL 1.1.

HashiCorp's official Terraform plugin: runs the Terraform MCP Server in Docker against the Terraform Registry and HCP Terraform API to look up provider and module docs and help write IaC. Needs Docker; TFE_TOKEN is optional.

All-in-one security scanner for container images, filesystems, Git repos and Kubernetes clusters: finds known vulnerabilities, IaC misconfigurations, leaked secrets and software licenses, and generates SBOMs. Open source, maintained by Aqua Security.

Open-source infrastructure-as-code tool and community fork of Terraform: describe cloud resources declaratively, run plan to generate an execution plan, then apply changes, creating resources in parallel by dependency graph. Community-governed, MPL-2.0.

Define cloud infrastructure in general-purpose languages like TypeScript, Python and Go, then preview and deploy with pulumi up to AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes and 300+ other providers. Open source and maintained by Pulumi.

Encrypts secret values in YAML, JSON, ENV and INI config files using AWS, GCP or Azure KMS, age or PGP, so secrets can be safely committed to Git alongside code. A CNCF sandbox project.

Estimates cloud costs of Terraform, Terragrunt, CloudFormation and AWS CDK changes before deployment and checks them against FinOps policies, in the terminal, editor, AI agents or CI. Requires an Infracost account; a free tier is available.

Generates editable draw.io architecture diagrams, ER diagrams, UML and BPMN flows from natural language or from Terraform, SQL DDL, OpenAPI specs and code repos, with incremental sync and multi-format export. Native export needs the draw.io desktop app.

Official AWS MCP that validates CloudFormation templates for syntax and security compliance, diagnoses deployment failures, and searches CloudFormation and CDK docs, code samples and best practices. Replaces the deprecated Cloud Control API server; needs AWS credentials.

Static scanner for security and compliance issues in Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, Helm, Dockerfiles and CI pipeline configs, with over a thousand built-in policies and hard-coded secret detection. Outputs SARIF, JSON and more. Maintained by Prisma Cloud.

AWS's official skills (Agent Toolkit for AWS) covering IAM, CDK/CloudFormation, serverless, containers, observability, cost management and Bedrock, plus service-specific skills. Running AWS operations requires locally configured credentials.

AWS's generally available agent toolkit and plugin marketplace: plugins such as aws-core, aws-agents and aws-data-analytics bundle the AWS MCP Server with evaluated skills for IaC, serverless, containers and billing. Calling AWS APIs requires configured credentials.

Terraform and OpenTofu best practices from Anton Babenko: diagnoses the failure mode first, then guides testing, module structure, state management, CI/CD and security scanning. Works for AWS, Azure and GCP.

HashiCorp's official server: looks up provider, module and policy docs in the Terraform Registry to help write IaC; with an HCP Terraform token it can also manage workspaces, variables and runs. Runs in Docker by default.

AWS Labs' official plugin marketplace: deploy-on-aws (architecture recommendations, cost estimates and IaC deployment), aws-serverless, aws-amplify, databases-on-aws, sagemaker-ai and more. AWS suggests Agent Toolkit for AWS for new projects.

HashiCorp's official plugin marketplace: the terraform plugin has 16 skills (configuration, modules, provider development, testing, import, Stacks and policy), and the packer plugin has 4 image-build and HCP Packer skills.

HashiCorp's official Terraform and Packer skills: write HCL in the official style, refactor modules, terraform test, provider development, Stacks and policy, plus AWS and Azure image builds.

Analyzes your codebase and generates a render.yaml Blueprint, or creates services directly through the Render MCP, to deploy apps to Render. Maintained by Render and included in OpenAI's curated skills. Needs a Render account and code pushed to GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket.

Pulumi's official plugin marketplace: write infrastructure as code in TypeScript, Python, Go and more, migrate from Terraform, CDK, CloudFormation or ARM, and manage ESC secrets and config. Works with both Claude Code and Codex.

Pulumi's official skills: Pulumi program best practices, components and the Automation API, ESC secrets and config, debugging failed pulumi up runs, and migrating from Terraform, CDK, CloudFormation or ARM to Pulumi.

AWS's official plugin for startups: answers AWS Activate credit eligibility and 60+ startup perks, gives architecture and cost advice by funding stage, team size and runway, and plans migrations from GCP, Azure or Heroku. Perk lookups need no AWS account; migrations need your repo.

Vanta's official plugin: from Claude Code, review control gaps for SOC 2, ISO 27001 and other frameworks, failing tests, vendor risk and policies, and generate fixes for code-level issues. Needs admin access to a paid Vanta account (browser auth); have compliance conclusions reviewed by an expert.
