pulumi

pulumi is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ashish7802/awesome-api-skills. It costs 0 tokens per session (507 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An infrastructure-as-code tool that lets you define cloud resources with TypeScript, Python, or Go instead of a specialised configuration language.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps create and update cloud resources, split infrastructure into independent stacks, share outputs between stacks, and inspect or repair deployment state.
Why use it?
It removes the need to duplicate large infrastructure definitions manually and lets you use normal programming constructs such as loops and external data.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

pulumi scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (examples/index.py, examples/index.ts), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Pulumi Skill

Universal Infrastructure as Code.

Ecosystem Graph

graph LR
  pulumi["Pulumi"]
  pulumi -- "alternative to" --> terraform
  pulumi -- "depends on" --> typescript

Quick Start

Pulumi allows you to write Infrastructure as Code using general-purpose programming languages (TypeScript, Python, Go) instead of proprietary domain-specific languages like HCL.

npm install @pulumi/pulumi @pulumi/aws
pulumi up

Production Patterns

Programmatic Generation

Because Pulumi uses real code, you can easily use loops to generate 50 identical S3 buckets with slightly varying names, or fetch data from an external API to determine resource configurations dynamically during deployment.

Architecture & Scaling

Micro-Stacks

Instead of one massive Pulumi project, split your infrastructure into independent Stacks (e.g., CoreNetwork, Database, Frontend). Use Stack References (new pulumi.StackReference) to pass outputs (like VPC IDs) between them safely.

Error Recovery

If Pulumi hangs during an update, you can manually cancel it and use pulumi stack export to inspect the raw JSON state, fix any corrupted resource IDs, and pulumi stack import the corrected state back.

Security Notes

Pulumi natively supports secret management (pulumi config set --secret). Secrets are encrypted in the state file. When writing TypeScript, these secrets are returned as Output<string> types which cannot be accidentally logged as plaintext.

Relationships

Prerequisites: typescript

Alternatives: terraform

References

Why use this skill

Use this when your agent works with pulumi — structured patterns beat pasted docs and prevent common hallucinations.

AI pitfalls

  • Referencing CLI flags or config keys that do not exist
  • Using outdated major versions of tools
  • Skipping lockfile or version pinning in examples

Production checklist

  • Secrets in environment variables, not source code
  • Error handling and logging in place
  • Rate limits and timeouts configured

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

pulumi is a skill published in the GitHub repository ashish7802/awesome-api-skills (13 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 507 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
