Why Agents Need an Infrastructure Package Manager

BigConfig as an infrastructure package manager for Agentic DevOps

Kief Morris at infrastructure-as-code.com nails it: having agents write reusable infrastructure code is far safer than letting them drive Terraform directly. But the ecosystem of composable components he envisions already exists—it’s called BigConfig.

In this reply, we explore how BigConfig’s package manager model gives agents exactly the high-level abstraction layer they need to go from “messy tourist” to reliable infrastructure composer.
