Can I see VMs across all namespaces at once?

Yes, the skill is designed to list virtual machines across the entire cluster by default, though it can also be filtered to a specific namespace.

What resource information is included in the inventory?

The inventory provides a detailed table including VM name, status, age, resource allocation (vCPU and Memory), storage capacity, Guest OS, node placement, and IP addresses.

Does it provide diagnostics for failing virtual machines?

Yes, it interprets status conditions and, for VMs in error states like CrashLoopBackOff, it can consult troubleshooting documentation to help identify the root cause.

What happens if the MCP server is unavailable?

The skill includes a fallback mechanism that will propose using standard 'oc' CLI commands to retrieve information, provided your KUBECONFIG is correctly configured.

Does this skill allow me to create or delete VMs?

No, vm-inventory is a read-only skill focused on visibility. You should use the vm-create or vm-lifecycle-manager skills for creating or modifying virtual machines.

Cloud Infrastructure

Lists and monitors virtual machines across OpenShift clusters, providing detailed status, resource usage, and health information.

The vm-inventory skill provides a comprehensive dashboard for OpenShift Virtualization environments, allowing users to discover and inspect virtual machines across all namespaces. It aggregates critical data points including power states, vCPU and memory allocations, guest OS details, and network configurations into a standardized table format. By integrating directly with OpenShift MCP servers, it offers real-time visibility into cluster health, making it an essential tool for platform engineers and developers to audit resources or diagnose pending and failed workloads before performing lifecycle operations.
