PINE Usage Guide

PINE is the developer-facing CLI tool for submitting and managing Terraform blueprints through the PORC orchestrator and Terraform Enterprise (TFE).

When to Use PINE

Teams use PINE to:

• Submit infrastructure blueprints
• Trigger rendering and upload to TFE
• Plan and apply Terraform runs governed by Sentinel policies

PINE integrates with PORC, which owns the TFE interaction lifecycle.

Blueprint Lifecycle

1. pine submit <blueprint.json> — Uploads and stages the blueprint
2. pine build --run-id <id> — Renders Terraform code and uploads to TFE
3. pine plan --run-id <id> — Triggers TFE plan
4. pine apply --run-id <id> — Triggers TFE apply

Sentinel policy enforcement occurs at the TFE layer. All operations must be approved and validated through PORC.
