Proxmox Safe MCP

Ein fokussierter Proxmox MCP-Server, der begrenzte Inventar-/Statusabfragen und nur zwei schmale Mutationsklassen bereitstellt: auf der Whitelist stehende Gast-Power-Aktionen und Snapshot-Erstellung. Extrahiert aus dem spectrenet-mcp-Commit 2e63f009d8f4642e17398685baef0251811d6637; dieses Repository ist eigenständig.

Alpha: Tests sind synthetisch. Die Proxmox-API-Kompatibilität wurde nicht für jede Version zertifiziert; testen Sie auf Nicht-Produktions-Infrastruktur.

Sicherheitsvertrag

  • Knoten sind für knotenbezogene Operationen (node_status) und beide Mutationswerkzeuge explizit auf die Whitelist gesetzt; Gasttypen sind nur qemu und lxc; VMIDs müssen positive ganze Zahlen sein.

  • cluster_status und list_guests geben absichtlich clusterweite API-Ansichten zurück und werden nicht durch die Knoten-Whitelist gefiltert. Beschränken Sie das dedizierte Proxmox-API-Konto/Token, um zu begrenzen, was diese Lesewerkzeuge sehen können.

  • Power-Aktionen sind nur start, shutdown, reboot und stop.

  • Snapshot-Namen bestehen aus 1–64 ASCII-Buchstaben, Ziffern, _ oder -.

  • Jede Mutation erfordert eine bytegenaue Bestätigung APPROVE <action> <target>.

  • Mutationsantworten sind Einreichungsbelege, kein Nachweis der Fertigstellung. Überprüfen Sie die zurückgegebene UPID und den endgültigen Zustand separat.

  • Es gibt keine Werkzeuge zum Löschen von Gästen/Snapshots, Host-Power, Speichermutation, Zuweisung, Migration oder Konfiguration. node_status schließt die Speicheraufzählung bewusst aus.

  • Antworten/Listen/Audit-Felder sind begrenzt und die TLS-Verifizierung ist standardmäßig aktiviert.

D1/5.0
Behavior1/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Tool has no description.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness1/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Tool has no description.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness1/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Tool has no description.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters1/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Tool has no description.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose1/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Tool has no description.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines1/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Tool has no description.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

D1.9/5.0

Scored across 5 tools

Disambiguation5/5

Each tool targets a distinct aspect of the Proxmox environment: cluster status, node status, guest listing, guest power control, and guest snapshotting. There is no overlap in purposes, making selection unambiguous.

Naming Consistency3/5

The names mix noun-initial patterns (cluster_status, node_status, guest_power) with verb-initial patterns (list_guests, snapshot_guest). This inconsistency is noticeable but still readable and predictable overall.

Tool Count5/5

With only 5 tools, the server is tightly scoped and each tool serves a clear purpose. This is well-balanced for a specialized MCP server focused on monitoring and safe guest operations.

Completeness3/5

The set covers status, listing, power, and snapshot operations but lacks lifecycle management (create, update, delete guests). While potentially intentional for a 'safe' server, it leaves notable gaps for full Proxmox administration.
