"You cannot manage what you cannot see." — across 67 AWS accounts, most teams see 3.

One operations manager cannot manually log into 50+ AWS accounts to check resources, costs, and security findings. Manual discovery takes hours, misses resources (proven in real incidents), and produces no audit trail. This is the daily reality for ANZ regulated industries — FSI, Energy, Telecom, Aviation — where APRA CPS 234 requires a complete asset register and SOC2 CC6/CC7 demands evidence of timely remediation.

"What gets measured gets managed." — Peter Drucker

DORA metrics (Deploy Frequency, Lead Time, Change Failure Rate, MTTR) were designed for traditional DevOps teams. In 2026, with AI agents doing 80% of code generation, they matter more, not less.

TL;DR — adlc --team terraform-aws installs 7 agents, 8 commands, 7 skills, 3 hooks, and 2 MCPs in a single command. A new engineer goes from zero to a production-grade Terraform-on-AWS environment in ~10 minutes instead of half a day.
