terraform-aws-bootstrap¶

Purpose¶

Bootstrap Terraform for the AWS account. This repo establishes the foundational AWS configuration: provider setup, account-level tagging, and the IAM and S3 primitives that all other Terraform repos depend on.

What this repo manages¶

• AWS provider and region defaults
• Default tagging policy applied to all resources
• Account-level IAM foundation (roles, policies) — to be added
• Shared S3 buckets for tooling state — to be added

State backend¶

Terraform Cloud, workspace terraform-aws-bootstrap, org karl-vanderslice-org.

Next steps¶

1. Authenticate AWS CLI: aws sso login or configure AWS_PROFILE
2. Run just init to initialize the workspace
3. Run just plan to confirm zero-drift baseline
4. Add IAM foundation resources and re-plan
