New Terraform Provider

To scaffold a new Terraform provider with Plugin Framework:

1. If I am already in a Terraform provider workspace, then confirm that I want to create a new workspace. If I do not want to create a new workspace, then skip all remaining steps.
2. Create a new workspace root directory. The root directory name should be prefixed with “terraform-provider-”. Perform all subsequent steps in this new workspace.
3. Initialize a new Go module.
4. Run go get -u github.com/hashicorp/terraform-plugin-framework@latest.
5. Write a main.go file that follows the example (opens in a new tab).
6. Write an internal/provider/provider.go file that follows the example (opens in a new tab). Rename the demo provider, the DEMO_* environment variables, and the authentication attributes to match the target API.
7. Remove TODO comments from main.go and provider.go.
8. Run go mod tidy
9. Run go build -o /dev/null
10. Run go test ./... The scaffold resolves credentials as explicit config with environment variable fallback. To grow that into a full credential provider chain (shared credentials files, profiles, platform identity, configure-time validation), use the provider-configuration skill (if available). To add the first resource or data source, use the provider-resources skill (if available).
