Handing a team its own infrastructure should take an afternoon. An agent should run your routine operations while your production key stays where it is.
Common problems
An agent doing ops, while you keep the keys
It runs routine operations behind approval gates. A confused or compromised agent leaks a placeholder.

Two tools, both free
choudoufu
A build of OpenTofu that writes who owns each resource onto the resource itself. Twenty-six real Terraform configurations run through its test suite every release. Docs · Compare
chant
Infrastructure as typed code, checked before anything runs. Deploys to the three big clouds and Kubernetes, and generates the pipelines. Docs · Compare

One command hands the estate back as an ordinary Terraform state file, with your own code unchanged. Both tools are open source and free.
