Ops-focused Proxmox VE management via REST API — monitor, control, provision, and troubleshoot VMs and LXC containers with battle-tested operational patterns. Use when asked to: - List, start, stop, restart VMs or LXC containers - Check node status, cluster health, or resource usage - Create, clone, or delete VMs and containers - Manage snapshots, backups, storage, or templates - Resize disks (API + in-guest filesystem steps) - Query guest agent for IP addresses - View tasks or system event…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Proxmox VE Management

## First-Time Setup

Create a credential file at `~/.proxmox-credentials`:

```bash
cat > ~/.proxmox-credentials <<'EOF'
PROXMOX_HOST=https://<your-proxmox-ip>:8006
PROXMOX_TOKEN_ID=user@pam!tokenname
PROXMOX_TOKEN_SECRET=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
EOF
chmod 600 ~/.proxmox-credentials
```

**Alternative:** Set `PROXMOX_HOST`, `PROXMOX_TOKEN_ID`, and `PROXMOX_TOKEN_SECRET` as environment variables directly (useful for CI/agent contexts). The helper script checks env vars first, then falls back to sourcing `~/.proxmox-credentials`.

Create API token in Proxmox: Datacenter → Permissions → API Tokens → Add. Use least-privilege: only grant the permissions your workflow requires (e.g., `PVEAuditor` for read-only monitoring, `PVEVMAdmin` for VM control). Disable Privilege Separation only if your workflow requires full API access.

## Auth Header

```bash
source ~/.proxmox-credentials
AUTH="Authorization: PVEAPIToken=$PROXMOX_TOKEN_ID=$PROXMOX_TOKEN_SECRET"
```

## Helper Script

`scripts/pve.sh` auto-discovers nodes from VMID — no need to specify the node for most operations.

```bash
pve.sh status              # Cluster nodes overview

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add eddygk/proxmox-ops/proxmox-ops@sha256:e3d78058627053f3

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260728.2bb80ee, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
