Vmware Monitor

Use this skill for safe, read-only queries of VMware infrastructure — no destructive operations exist in the codebase; a test enforces it. Directly handles: a one-glance cross-cluster health summary, object-centered VM/host/datastore investigation drill-downs (correlating surrounding infrastructure + recent events), a cross-vCenter "what needs attention now?" rollup, list VMs/hosts/datastores/clusters, active alarms, recent events, VM details. Always use vmware-monitor when the user asks to "list VMs", "check vSphere alarms", "show host status", "is anything on fire", "what needs attention now", "what is happening around this VM/host/datastore", "investigate this VM" — or needs read-only VMware info before making changes. Do NOT use for any write operations — this skill is read-only and has no code path that creates, modifies, or deletes a resource. For VM modifications use vmware-aiops, for networking use vmware-nsx, for metrics/capacity use vmware-aria. For load balancing/AVI/AKO use vmware-avi.

Overview

What It Does

Vmware Monitor packages a focused devops & cloud workflow for an AI agent. Use this skill for safe, read-only queries of VMware infrastructure — no destructive operations exist in the codebase; a test enforces it. Directly handles: a one-glance cross-cluster health summary, object-centered VM/host/datastore investigation drill-downs (correlating surrounding infrastructure + recent events), a cross-vCenter "what needs attention now?" rollup, list VMs/hosts/datastores/clusters, active alarms, recent events, VM details. Always use vmware-monitor when the user asks to "list VMs", "check vSphere alarms", "show host status", "is anything on fire", "what needs attention now", "what is happening around this VM/host/datastore", "investigate this VM" — or needs read-only VMware info before making changes. Do NOT use for any write operations — this skill is read-only and has no code path that creates, modifies, or deletes a resource. For VM modifications use vmware-aiops, for networking use vmware-nsx, for metrics/capacity use vmware-aria. For load balancing/AVI/AKO use vmware-avi. It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
