Most of Claude Code's Terraform suggestions are based on training data. That means outdated provider arguments, deprecated resource syntax, and modules that may not exist. The official Terraform MCP Server from HashiCorp fixes this by giving Claude Code direct access to the live Terraform Registry -- provider schemas, module docs, and if you connect it to Terraform Cloud, your actual workspace state.
In this video I walk through the full setup, then show three real demos where it changes how I work.
