Proximo Overview

The john-broadway/proximo MCP server exposes Proxmox VE, Backup Server, Mail Gateway, and Datacenter Manager operations through one MCP control plane. It connects to the Proxmox API using a node name and token file, with read-only behavior as the default. Mutations first return a plan describing their blast radius, may create snapshots where supported, and record changes in a hash-chained audit ledger. Reach for it when an agent needs to inspect or operate Proxmox infrastructure while keeping credentials scoped and changes reviewable.
