Strengths
- Strong official-docs signal and very clear IaC-specific utility.
- Helps reduce stale Terraform knowledge by pulling current registry context.
Things to watch
- Still beta and not something to wire into production blindly.
- High-impact permissions make write access especially sensitive.
