Proxmox VE MCP
A minimal Model Context Protocol server for Proxmox VE that allows AI agents to manage cluster nodes, QEMU VMs, LXC containers, storage, and snapshots. It operates in a read-only mode by default for safety but can be configured for write operations. The server provides tools to list nodes, get node status, manage VMs, and handle snapshots, facilitating infrastructure automation and monitoring within a Proxmox environment.
