Copy this and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI assistant:
I want to install the "vmware-aiops" skill in my project. Repository: https://github.com/zw008/VMware-AIops Please read the repo to find the SKILL.md file(s), then: 1. Download them into the correct skills directory (.claude/skills/ or .cursor/skills/) 2. Include any companion files referenced by the skill 3. Confirm what was installed and where
Description
AI-powered VMware vCenter/ESXi monitoring and operations. Manage infrastructure via natural language: inventory queries, health monitoring, VM lifecycle (create, delete, power, snapshot, clone, migrate), VM deployment (OVA, template, linked clone, batch), datastore browsing, vSAN management, Aria Operations analytics, Kubernetes clusters, and scheduled log scanning.
Usage Mode
Choose the best mode based on your environment: | Scenario | Recommended Mode | Why | |----------|-----------------|-----| | Cloud models (Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini) | MCP or CLI | Both work well; MCP gives structured JSON I/O | | Local/small models (Ollama, Llama, Qwen <32B) | CLI | Lower token cost (~2K vs ~10K), higher accuracy — small models struggle with 31 MCP tool schemas | | Token-sensitive workflows | CLI | CLI via SKILL.md uses ~2K tokens; MCP loads ~10K tokens of tool definitions into every conversation | | Automated pipelines / Agent chaining | MCP | Structured JSON input/output, type-safe parameters, no shell parsing |
VMware AIops
AI-powered VMware vCenter and ESXi operations tool. Manage your entire VMware infrastructure using natural language through any AI coding assistant. > Need read-only monitoring only? Use VMware-Monitor — an independent repository with code-level safety (zero destructive code in the codebase). Install: clawhub install vmware-monitor
When to Use This Skill
• Query VM, host, datastore, cluster, and network inventory • Check health status, active alarms, hardware sensors, and event logs • Perform VM lifecycle operations: power on/off, create, delete, snapshot, clone, migrate • Deploy VMs from OVA, templates, linked clones, or batch specs • Browse datastores and discover ISO/OVA/VMDK images • Monitor vSAN health, capacity, disk groups, and performance • Access Aria Operations (VCF Operations) for historical metrics, anomaly detection, and capacity planning • Manage vSphere Kubernetes Service (VKS) clusters • Run scheduled scanning with webhook notifications (Slack, Discord)
Quick Install
All install methods fetch from the same source: github.com/zw008/VMware-AIops (MIT licensed). We recommend reviewing the source code before installing. `bash
