# Terraform Agent
|
|
|
|
The `terraform agent` command is the heart of Terraform: it runs the agent that
|
|
performs the important task of maintaining membership information,
|
|
running checks, announcing services, handling queries, etc.
|
|
|
|
Due to the power and flexibility of this command, the Terraform agent
|
|
is documented in its own section. See the [Terraform Agent](/docs/agent/basics.html)
|
|
section for more information on how to use this command and the
|
|
options it has.
