opentofu/registry

OpenTofu Registry is a metadata and tooling system that powers the provider and module registry for OpenTofu.

The registry solves the problem of centrally managing and distributing OpenTofu providers and modules. It maintains metadata that drives the searchable registry hosted at registry.opentofu.org, and includes applications for version management, validation, and API generation. Submissions are made through structured GitHub issue templates rather than pull requests, ensuring that the automated validation and processing pipeline receives properly formatted data.

Organizations and individuals should use this registry to publish providers and modules for the OpenTofu ecosystem. It suits projects that need to be discoverable by OpenTofu users and that can follow the registry's inclusion policies. The registry treats published versions as immutable by default, with removal only considered under specific circumstances outlined in the project's version immutability policy.

The project maintains active engagement with submissions, reviewing provider, module, and GPG key additions through its structured issue process. The codebase welcomes contributions and provides documented guidelines for potential contributors. The registry benefits from infrastructure sponsorship that supports its hosting and availability to the community.
