# Thoth Framework
Thoth Framework is a framework to create and manage the [Internal Developer Platform](https://internaldeveloperplatform.org/what-is-an-internal-developer-platform/) tasks for infrastructure, devops, devsecops, software developers, and platform engineering teams aligned with the business objectives:
1. [x] Minimize mistakes.
2. [x] Increase velocity
3. [x] Improve products
4. [x] Enforce compliance
5. [x] Reduce lock-in
## Mapping Mechanisms
| Business Objective | Mechanism | Implementation |
|-------------------|--------------------|----------------|
| Minimize mistakes | Meaninful defaults | Templates |
| Increase velocity | Automation | IaC Scripts |
| Improve products | Fill product gaps | New components |
| Enforce compliance | Restrict choinces | Wrappers |
| Reduce lock-in | Abstraction | Service layers |
Thoth allows you to extend and operate your Developer Control Plane, and enable the developer experience with the internal developer platform trough command line.
# Tools
## ThothCTL
Package for accelerating the adoption of Internal Frameworks, enable reusing and interaction with the Internal Developer Platform.
# Use cases
- **[Template Engine](template_engine/template_engine.md)**:
- Build and configure any kind of template
- Handling templates to create, add, remove or update components
- Code generation
- **Automate tasks**:
- Create and bootstrap local development environment
- Extend CI/CD pull request workflow
- Create documentation for projects (IaC), Generative AI doc generation
- **Check and compliance**:
- Check project structure
- DevSecOps for IaC (Terraform, tofu)
- Scan your IaC terraform,tofu templates
- Generate reports
- Manage inventory and dependencies
- Review IaC changes and make suggestions (Generative AI)
- **AWS Cost Analysis** - Estimate infrastructure costs from Terraform plans
- Real-time pricing using AWS API
- Service-by-service cost breakdown
- Optimization recommendations
- Support for 12+ AWS services (EC2, RDS, S3, Lambda, EKS, Bedrock, etc.)
- **Internal Developer Platform CLI**
- Create projects from your templates
- Source control setup
- Scaffold - quickly set up the structure of a project.
# Getting Started
```bash
$ thothctl --help
Usage: thothctl [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
ThothForge CLI - The Internal Developer Platform CLI
Options:
--version Show the version and exit.
--debug Enable debug mode
-d, --code-directory PATH Configuration file path
--help Show this message and exit.
Commands:
check Initialize and setup project configurations
document Initialize and setup project configurations
generate Generate IaC from rules, use cases, and components
init Initialize and setup project configurations

list List Projects and Spaces managed by thothctl locally
mcp Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for ThothCTL
project Convert, clean up and manage the current project
remove Remove Projects manage by thothctl
scan Scan infrastructure code for security issues.
upgrade Upgrade thothctl to the latest version
## 💰 AWS Cost Analysis
ThothCTL now includes comprehensive AWS cost analysis capabilities:
```bash
# Analyze Terraform plan costs
thothctl check iac -type cost-analysis --recursive
# Features:
# ✅ Real-time AWS pricing via API
# ✅ 12+ AWS services supported (EC2, RDS, S3, Lambda, EKS, Bedrock, etc.)
# ✅ Monthly/annual cost projections
# ✅ Service-by-service breakdown
# ✅ Optimization recommendations
# ✅ Offline fallback estimates
```
**Supported Services**: EC2, RDS, S3, Lambda, ELB, VPC, EBS, CloudWatch, EKS, ECS, Secrets Manager, Bedrock
```
## Enabling Command Autocompletion
ThothCTL supports command autocompletion to make it easier to use. To enable it:
```bash
# Install the package
pip install thothctl
# Run the autocomplete setup script
thothctl-register-autocomplete
# Follow the instructions to add the autocomplete configuration to your shell
```
After setting up autocomplete, you can use the Tab key to complete commands, options, and arguments.
For example, you can type `thothctl i` and it will expand to `thothctl init`.
## 🎯 Recent Improvements - Inventory Command
### **Modern Infrastructure Inventory with Professional Reports** ✨
The `thothctl inventory iac` command has been significantly enhanced with:
#### **🎨 Modern HTML Reports**
- **Professional styling** with Inter font and gradient design
- **Responsive layout** that works on desktop, tablet, and mobile
- **Color-coded status badges** for easy identification of outdated components
- **Print optimization** perfect for documentation and sharing
#### **🚀 Unified Version Checking**
```bash
# Before: Confusing multiple flags
thothctl inventory iac --check-providers --check-provider-versions --check-versions
# After: Simple and intuitive
thothctl inventory iac --check-versions
```
#### **📊 Enhanced Provider Analysis**
- **Provider version columns** showing "Latest Version" and "Status"
- **Comprehensive provider tracking** with registry information
- **Automatic provider checking** when version analysis is enabled
- **Provider statistics** in summary reports
#### **Quick Start**
```bash
# Create comprehensive inventory with modern reporting
thothctl inventory iac --check-versions
# Generate professional documentation
thothctl inventory iac --check-versions --project-name "Production Infrastructure"
# CI/CD integration with JSON output
thothctl inventory iac --check-versions --report-type json
```
**Benefits:**
- ✅ **50% reduction** in command complexity
- ✅ **Professional reports** suitable for business presentations
- ✅ **Enhanced provider analysis** with version tracking
- ✅ **Simplified user experience** with intelligent automation
