Incident 14242 Report
Claude Code Agent Reportedly Deleted DataTalks.Club Production Infrastructure, Database, and Snapshots via Terraform

2026-02-26

A Claude Code agent executing Terraform commands reportedly destroyed the production infrastructure behind the DataTalks.Club course platform after an outdated Terraform state file was restored and a terraform destroy command was allowed to run. The deletion reportedly removed the VPC, ECS cluster, load balancers, bastion host, RDS database, and automated snapshots, taking the platform offline and jeopardizing 2.5 years of data. AWS reportedly later restored a snapshot.
