Worked on the spacelift-io/terraform-provider-spacelift repository to enhance the stability of context resource renaming. Addressed a bug where renaming a context would unnecessarily trigger resource recreation by removing the ForceNew attribute from the context resource’s name field. Updated and expanded tests to ensure that the context ID remains unchanged while allowing the display name to update, thereby preserving resource identity and reducing plan and apply churn for users. This solution was implemented using Go and focused on Terraform provider development and testing practices, resulting in a smoother user experience when managing context resources through Terraform workflows.

In January 2025, delivered a stability fix for the spacelift-io/terraform-provider-spacelift context resource to prevent recreation during rename. This was achieved by removing ForceNew from the context resource name field and updating tests to verify that the context ID remains unchanged while the display name updates. The change reduces plan/apply churn and preserves resource identity, improving user experience when renaming contexts. Implemented in commit b252356d0a1b771984979ec9f5f8a9b7e26737f0 (Don't recreate contexts on rename, #591).
