Instructions
Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.
This server publishes no instructions, or was last inspected before Glama recorded them.

Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| pve_versionA | Proxmox VE version of the connected node (version, release, repository id). Tells you which version-gated features are available. |
| pve_list_nodesA | List all nodes in the Proxmox cluster with their online status and load. |
| pve_node_statusA | Detailed status of a single node: CPU, memory, uptime, kernel and PVE version. |
| pve_cluster_resourcesA | Single combined view of cluster resources (VMs, containers, storage, nodes). Use the type filter to narrow the result. |
| pve_list_tasksA | Recent task log for a node, including UPID, type, status and exit status. Useful to check on a long-running operation that may have outlived a tool call timeout. |
| pve_list_vmsA | List QEMU VMs. With a node, lists that node directly; without one, returns every VM in the cluster from the resource index. |
| pve_vm_statusA | Current runtime status of a VM (running/stopped, CPU, memory, uptime). |
| pve_vm_configA | Full configuration of a VM (cores, memory, disks, network, boot order). |
| pve_list_containersA | List LXC containers. With a node, lists that node directly; without one, returns every container in the cluster from the resource index. |
| pve_lxc_statusA | Current runtime status of a container (running/stopped, CPU, memory, uptime). |
| pve_lxc_configA | Full configuration of a container (cores, memory, rootfs, network, features). |
| pve_list_snapshotsA | List snapshots of a VM or container, including the "current" pseudo-snapshot. |
| pve_list_storageA | List storages visible from a node, with type, enabled content and free space. |
| pve_storage_contentA | List the volumes on a storage: ISO images, container templates, disk images or backups. Use the content filter to narrow the listing. |
| pve_list_networkA | List network interfaces on a node (bridges, bonds, physical NICs, VLANs). Pending, not-yet-applied changes are included. |
| pve_list_backupsB | List backup archives stored on a storage. |
