With terraform, using a property or a resource that doesn't exist is effectively the same as an API call that does not exist. It's almost exactly the same really, because under the hood terraform will try to make a gcloud/aws API call with your param and it will not work because it doesn't exist. You are making a distinction without a difference. Just because it can be caught at runtime doesn't make it insignificant.

Anyway, I still see hallucinations in all languages, even javascript, attempting to use libraries or APIs that do not exist. Could you elaborate on how you have solved this problem?

Gemini CLI (it's free and I'm cheap) will run the build process after making changes. If an error occurs, it will interpret it and fix it. That will take care of it using functions that don't exist.

I can get stuck in a loop, but in general it'll get somewhere.

Yeah, again, zero trouble believing that agents don't reliably produce sane Terraform.
