## Project history and usage

Kuzco is a Go CLI from RoseSecurity for reviewing Terraform and OpenTofu resources, comparing them with provider schemas, and asking a local LLM for improvement suggestions.

### Project history

The project appeared as an infrastructure-analysis tool in the Terraform/OpenTofu ecosystem. Its README frames the problem as reviewing generated or minimal IaC resources without manually digging through provider documentation, using Ollama-backed local LLMs to recommend safer and more efficient settings.

### Adoption history

Kuzco is an early, niche tool in the wave of AI-assisted infrastructure-as-code utilities. The release history shows fast iteration through packaging, prompt customization, a TUI, and command-based workflows rather than long-running ecosystem adoption.

### How it is used

Users run the CLI against Terraform or OpenTofu configurations. The README documents Homebrew, Go, Apt, and source installation, requires Ollama for model-backed recommendations, and exposes commands such as `recommend`, `fix`, `list`, and `version`.

### Why package nerds care

Kuzco is notable as a small Homebrew-packaged example of local-LLM tooling being inserted into IaC review workflows, next to more established static analyzers such as tfsec and tflint-style tools.

### Timeline

- v0.7.0: Added publishing workflow and customizable prompts.
- v0.9.0: Added a TUI.
- v1.0.0: Introduced `fix` and `recommend` command workflows.

### Related projects

- Kuzco is related to Terraform, OpenTofu, Ollama, and static IaC analysis tools such as tfsec and tflint.
