Top 23 Go infrastructure-as-code Projects
-
terraform
Terraform enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve infrastructure. It is a source-available tool that codifies APIs into declarative configuration files that can be shared amongst team members, treated as code, edited, reviewed, and versioned.

Representative tools: Checkov is the broadest — it covers Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes, and more out of the box. tfsec is Terraform-focused and fast (now converging with Trivy). KICS covers a wide spread of IaC formats.

Timely! I just re-setup my Pi5 with the help of Claude. https://github.com/kaihendry/ai-pi
Tbh I did the mistake of throwing away Ansible, so testing my setup was a pain!
Since with AI, the focus should be on testing, perhaps it's sensible to drop Ansible for something like https://github.com/goss-org/goss
Things are happening so fast, I was impressed to see a Linux distro embrace using a SKILL.md! https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/blob/master/default/omar...

Digger is an open source IaC orchestration tool. Digger allows you to run IaC in your existing CI pipeline ⚡️
Project mention: Show HN: Tf-dialect: Teach AI agents your org's Terraform standards via MCP | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-11-14Hey HN - I am working on a terraform automation tool [1] and have been observing that a lot of our users are now using coding agents in their workflows, even for infra tasks. Obviously, this means a lot of terraform is being generated by coding agents, and while this is great for greenfield setups, most teams already have conventions in place.
My colleague was speaking to a friend earlier today, who mentioned that they've heard from people who "never wanted to touch TF starting to use it because AI is making it easier for them."
This led me to think that we need to make it easy for folks to use their agents to generate context aware IaC, and we need to be the best tool to run that agent generated IaC.
In the process of this thought exercise I vibe coded tf-dialect. Would love to learn how the community uses coding agents to manage infra and if something like this would be useful.

When I last tried deSEC, the service was reliable and well worth the price of admission, but the web UI and API were both quite rough, and propagation tended to be quite slow. It was annoying to do an ACME DNS01 challenge on it, for example. IIRC, the API didn't have a complete set of replace/edit endpoints, so even DNSControl (https://github.com/DNSControl/dnscontrol) would leave records nonexistent for a while while during updates.
As an aside—though this certainly applies to deSEC—it's strange to me how so many DNS services (free or paid) struggle to import simple Bind zone files, often either giving a vague error ("one or more records could not be imported"), mangling records, or even just silently omitting records. Parsing a zone file has some gotchas, but it doesn't seem like it should be that hard.

terracognita
Reads from existing public and private cloud providers (reverse Terraform) and generates your infrastructure as code on Terraform configuration
-
-
-
terratag
Terratag is a CLI tool that enables users of Terraform to automatically create and maintain tags across their entire set of AWS, Azure, and GCP resources
-
stackql
Query, provision and operate Cloud, SaaS, API and Model Context Protocol (MCP) resources through a unified SQL-based framework for humans and AI agents.
Project mention: One manifest, two clouds: multi-cloud infrastructure with stackql-deploy | dev.to | 2026-09-28If the pattern makes sense to you, star the stackql repository so more developers find it. Full documentation, more manifest examples, and provider-specific guides are at stackql-deploy.io.

yor
Extensible auto-tagger for your IaC files. The ultimate way to link entities in the cloud back to the codified resource which created it.
-
formae
Open-source Infrastructure As Code that starts from what already runs. formae discovers your estate, versions drift and hands back current code. A Terraform and Pulumi alternative built on Pkl, with an MCP server for AI agents.

I'm curious what the google cli is that you're referring to. Could it be kubecfg (https://github.com/kubecfg/kubecfg)?
I've used it in the past (for a quite small deployment I must say), but have been very happy with it. Specifically the diff mode is very powerful to see what changes you'll apply compared to what's currently deployed.
