An individual documented their experience using an AI coding agent to manage real infrastructure with Terraform over three months. The key to success was leveraging `terraform plan -json` as a machine-readable feedback mechanism, akin to a test suite for application code. This approach allowed the AI to iterate on infrastructure changes safely, with a custom script flagging any destructive actions before they could be applied, thus creating a reliable loop for AI-driven infrastructure management.

IMPACT Demonstrates a practical method for using AI agents to manage complex infrastructure code, potentially reducing manual effort and errors.
RANK_REASON Article describes a user's experience integrating an AI agent with an existing tool (Terraform) for infrastructure management, rather than a new product release or core research.
