📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughTerragrunt now reads dependency outputs directly from supported S3, GCS, and AzureRM state backends. The change adds backend validation, workspace handling, streaming state parsing, Azure client caching, native fallback behavior, integration tests, regression coverage, and updated documentation. ChangesDependency state read orchestration
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~90 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This PR adds direct GCS and Azure state reads, but current merge-readiness risk remains moderate because documentation may expose v1.1.4 behavior before release and certain dot-segment workspace values may select the wrong state object; one regression test can also pass with an uninformative mock value. These bounded issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. Suggested reviewers: Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

cache isolation.

configurations using SSE-C via either sse_customer_key or AWS_SSE_CUSTOMER_KEY,
so the native reader is selected when those values are set. Update the predicate
to detect both configuration paths while preserving existing
workspace_key_prefix checks, and add regression coverage for each SSE-C
configuration path.

@yhakbar Agreed, don't think there is much point rebasing #5499 when this looks to do the same feature + for Azure. Happy for this to land if it's gonna be soon, else it's gonna have to be a fork 😭 |

This API is a little weird. It's not a reader in the io.Reader sense.
Would it be better to have a type like this:
type directStateBackend struct {
supported func(*ParsingContext, *remotestate.RemoteState) bool
read func(context.Context, log.Logger, *ParsingContext, *remotestate.RemoteState, string) ([]byte, error)
}
And a global var like this:
var directStateBackends = map[string]directStateBackend{...}

Could this take an io.Reader instead of []byte?
The caller already has one from open() and this is the only reason we buffer the payload in memory first.

Use a distinct mock output value.
If module-b output retrieval fails, the resolver can return module-c’s "argocd" mock for the allowed "output" command. The assertion at test/integration_regressions_tf_test.go:1167 can then pass without proving that module-b’s output-time environment variable was used. Set the mock to "mock-not-used".

If we can get rid of ProcessEnv, I think that would be really good and address my concerns here. If not, I think this does the job and can be merged in. Just tell me if you want the stamp.
