VMware监控

Step 0: Prerequisites

```bash

Node.js 18+ required for Gemini CLI and Codex CLI

node --version ```

Run without installing (requires PyPI access each launch)

uvx --from vmware-monitor vmware-monitor mcp

Quick Install (Recommended)

Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, Trae, and 30+ AI agents:

```bash

PyPI Install (No GitHub Access Required)

```bash

Install via uv (recommended)

uv tool install vmware-monitor

Claude Code Plugin Install

```bash

Install plugin

/plugin install vmware-monitor

Installation

Step 1: Clone & Install Python Backend

git clone https://github.com/zw008/VMware-Monitor.git
cd VMware-Monitor
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .

Install Gemini CLI

npm install -g @google/gemini-cli

Install the extension from the cloned repo

gemini extensions install ./gemini-extension

Or install directly from GitHub

gemini extensions install https://github.com/zw008/VMware-Monitor

Then start Gemini CLI:

---

#### Option C: OpenAI Codex CLI

Install Codex CLI

npm i -g @openai/codex

brew install --cask codex

Install Aider

pip install aider-chat

Install Ollama for local models (optional)

Install Continue CLI

npm i -g @continuedev/cli

Already installed in Step 1

source .venv/bin/activate

vmware-monitor inventory vms --target home-esxi vmware-monitor health alarms --target home-esxi vmware-monitor vm info my-vm --target home-esxi ```

---

See examples/mcp-configs/ for your agent's config format

```

---

Example: target "home-esxi" → VMWARE_HOME_ESXI_PASSWORD

Example: target "prod-vcenter" → VMWARE_PROD_VCENTER_PASSWORD

```

Step 2: Configure

```bash mkdir -p ~/.vmware-monitor cp config.example.yaml ~/.vmware-monitor/config.yaml

Edit config.yaml with your vCenter/ESXi targets

Set passwords via `.env` file (recommended):

With a custom config path

VMWARE_MONITOR_CONFIG=/path/to/config.yaml vmware-monitor mcp

**Claude Desktop config** (`claude_desktop_config.json`):

<details>
<summary>Alternative: uvx (no install) or legacy entry point</summary>

MCP Config Generator

vmware-monitor mcp-config generate --agent goose # Generate config for Goose vmware-monitor mcp-config generate --agent claude-code # Generate config for Claude Code vmware-monitor mcp-config list # List all supported agents

Configuration

See config.example.yaml for all options.

```bash

Common Workflows

MCP Server Integrations

The vmware-monitor MCP server works with any MCP-compatible agent or tool. Ready-to-use configuration templates are in examples/mcp-configs/. All 8 tools are read-only — code-level enforced safety.

Fully local operation (no cloud API required):

```bash

Enable plugin

python3 -c " import json, pathlib f = pathlib.Path.home() / '.claude/settings.json' d = json.loads(f.read_text()) if f.exists() else {} d.setdefault('enabledPlugins', {})['vmware-monitor@vmware-monitor'] = True f.write_text(json.dumps(d, indent=2)) "

Restart Claude Code, then:
