Terraform CLI

Overview
This document describes the Terraform CLI integration, not to be confused with our support for the Terraform Cloud integration.
SREs run multiple types of code (e.g. Terraform templates, Ansible playbooks, Python scripts) to automate their tasks. Currently, ad-hoc mechanisms to manage secrets, pass data, collect logs, and manage users are being developed. We built this integration, specifically to support the execution of Terraform templates.
