  • cross_vcenter_attention

    [READ] "What needs attention now?" across EVERY configured vCenter — one list.

  • datastore_capacity

    [READ] Per-datastore capacity with thin-provisioning over-commit.

    [READ] Scan recent ESXi host syslog lines for error/warning patterns.

  • host_performance

    [READ] Real-time CPU/memory/disk/network utilisation per ESXi host.

Read-only VMware vCenter/ESXi monitoring — 32 tools. No destructive operations exist in this codebase, and a test enforces that.

Why a separate repository? VMware Monitor is fully independent from VMware-AIops. No power off, delete, create, reconfigure, snapshot-create/revert/delete, clone, or migrate functions exist in this codebase — not a prompt constraint, an absence.

How that is enforced, precisely. tests/eval/regression/testreadonlyenforcement.py parses every source file with ast and requires each vSphere method the package calls to appear on a reviewed allowlist, cross-checked against pyVmomi's own type metadata: anything returning a vim.Task, or gated by vCenter on a non-read privilege, fails unless a human wrote down why. Today that allowlist is fourteen methods. The check is a gate on the code as written — it cannot see a method name assembled at runtime, and nothing runs it automatically, so it holds only as far as someone runs the test suite. For a guarantee that does not depend on this repository at all, point the skill at a dedicated account holding vCenter's built-in Read-Only** role (which reads need more than that role).

What "read-only" does not cover. It is a claim about vCenter/ESXi: no code path changes their state. On vCenter the skill opens only its own login session and short-lived query handles it releases. It does write locally: ~/.vmware-monitor/config.yaml and .env (via init; plaintext passwords in .env are rewritten as b64: on load), audit logs (~/.vmware/audit.db for MCP calls, ~/.vmware-monitor/audit.log for CLI commands), --html snapshots in ~/vmware-health/, and — only after daemon start — daemon.pid, scan.log, and posts to a webhook you configured. Full table: setup guide.
