Use when editing or reviewing Terraform that manages self-managed Kong Gateway Admin API entities with the official \`kong/kong-gateway\` provider; not for Konnect resources, decK-native Gateway GitOps, or gateway troubleshooting before tool choice.

## From README

Terraform for self-managed Kong Gateway Goal Author or revise Terraform-managed self-managed Kong Gateway entities while preserving the repository's current module layout, provider model, and state ownership. Use this skill once Terraform is already the right tool for Admin API-backed self-managed Gateway work. Do not use it as the default for Konnect platform resources or for design and troubleshooting work that should happen before tool-specific HCL changes. Tool Positioning Use this skill when the repository already uses Terraform for self-managed Gateway resources or the user explicitly asks for Terraform. This skill owns HCL authoring, import-first adoption, plan review, and Terraform-native proof after the Terraform path is chosen. Preserve existing Terraform modules, variables, backend settings, and workspaces. Use the official kong/kong-gateway provider for self-managed Gateway resources reachable through the Admin API.
