+   generate_hcl "backend.tf" {
+     content {

+   ```
+
+---
+
+### **6. Run Terraform Commands**
+- **Initialize stacks:**
+  ```bash
+  terramate run terraform init
+  ```
+
+- **Plan changes:**
+  ```bash
+  terramate run terraform plan
+  ```
+
+- **Apply changes:**
+  ```bash
+  terramate run terraform apply -auto-approve
+  ```
+
+- **Run commands only on changed stacks:**
+  ```bash
+  terramate run --changed terraform init
+  terramate run --changed terraform plan
+  terramate run --changed terraform apply -auto-approve
+  ```
