proxmox

proxmox is a skill for Claude Code from xobotyi/cc-foundry. It costs 91 tokens per session (5,698 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A Proxmox VE administration guide for managing virtual machines, lightweight containers, storage, networking, clusters, backups, and hardware access. Proxmox VE is software for running and managing servers and virtual guests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to provision or configure Proxmox virtual machines and containers, automate hosts, plan storage and networks, set up high availability, backups, PCIe passthrough, or virtual GPUs.
Why use it?
It helps make infrastructure changes safer by considering storage, networking, redundancy, security, and recovery together.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

proxmox scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

- Disable root SSH; use non-root with sudo - Do not run Docker or other services directly on the PVE host

Proxmox VE

Production infrastructure demands production discipline. Every Proxmox configuration must be secure by default, redundant where it matters, and automated where possible.

Guest Management

VM vs LXC vs OCI Decision

  • Default to LXC for trusted Linux workloads — near-zero overhead, high density
  • Use VMs when the workload requires: non-Linux OS, full kernel isolation, PCIe passthrough, or live migration
  • Use OCI containers (PVE 9.1+, tech preview) for single-purpose microservices from Docker Hub/GHCR — lightweight deployment without a Docker VM. Not suitable for multi-container stacks or workloads requiring Docker Compose
  • Use a Docker VM for full Docker/Compose/Kubernetes workflows, multi-container stacks, or advanced networking (macvlan, overlay). Still the most flexible and compatible option for container-heavy workloads
  • Use unprivileged containers (default) — they map container UID 0 to a non-privileged host UID, preventing container escape attacks
  • Only use privileged containers when unprivileged mode is incompatible (specific device access, certain NFS mounts)

What ships with it

7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

proxmox is a skill published in the GitHub repository xobotyi/cc-foundry (20 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 91 tokens to every session and 5,698 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
