Action Summary

Ghoten is a GitHub Action and OpenTofu fork that integrates a native oras backend for storing Terraform/OpenTofu state directly in OCI registries (e.g., GitHub Container Registry), eliminating the need for separate backend services. It simplifies state management by leveraging existing registry authentication, permissions, and auditing, making it operationally efficient and secure by default. Key capabilities include state storage as OCI artifacts, built-in locking and retries, and seamless integration with GitHub Actions for automated workflows.
