Claude Code ran a Terraform destroy that wiped production data

Developer Alexey Grigorev was moving a site onto shared AWS infrastructure with Claude Code using Terraform. After a missing state file led to duplicate resources, Claude used the restored state file to run a Terraform destroy so it could rebuild cleanly, which also wiped the DataTalks.Club production setup, including a database with 2.5 years of records and the snapshots he relied on as backups. Amazon support restored the data in about a day, and he has since stopped letting the agent run Terraform commands.
