proxmox-ops skillA

proxmox-ops is agent-read markdown (skill) from eddygk/proxmox-ops: 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 log.

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns 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

Latest version
mdr add eddygk/proxmox-ops/proxmox-ops@git:20260728.2bb80ee
Exact content
mdr add eddygk/proxmox-ops/proxmox-ops@sha256:e3d78058627053f3

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
