An AI for your Proxmox cluster that can't surprise you: every change is dry-run first and shows the blast radius — the exact guests that lose a disk — before it happens. Auto-snapshot + rollback. API-only by default. Open source.

Take the "fuck you." Coming from you, that's the best thing I've heard all day — and I know exactly what it means. That's the weakness leaving the body. Your words, not mine. Go let the shower have it ! I'm not going anywhere. Come find me when you're back.

@JschwarzJ @_Qstormrider You wouldn't believe it either way. Your mind is already made up.

So when you start seeing me deliver full applications, suites, tools, sure I'm just a vibe coder. Sure, I'm just making slop.

Don't actually look to see that some people can actually use AI because it's just an extension of their own knowledge, some use it to try and have it.

In 2008-2010 timeframe, the world started to show itself to me. Patterns, people, places and things all started lining up and it wasn't all good.

It was a time where success in my personal and professional were also at crossroads. Everything seemed like it was heading where

[John Broadway @JEBroadway]

participate in things that I had only thought about. I'm not a dev truly, not great at even writing or speaking english much less code, but what I am good at, is seeing patterns, systems, processes.

The 35+ years of tech experiences have provided great insight into using AI.

@sooyoon_eth thanks 🙏 key call: the agent isn't the trust boundary — the PVE token is. read-only by default, can't exceed the RBAC grants you mint it. on top: every destructive op has a "blast" test asserting PLAN refuses + CodeQL/gitleaks/dep-audit in CI. no ext pentest yet — that's roadmap

[John Broadway @JEBroadway]

Hand an AI agent your Proxmox cluster — and keep the receipts.

Proximo makes every dangerous op planned (see the blast radius), reversible (snapshot first), and proven (tamper-evident log that tells on itself).

Open source, Apache-2.0. 25-sec demo 👇

It's early — I'd rather you find the holes now. Spar with me. ⚔️

I wanted an AI agent managing my Proxmox cluster. I did NOT want it deleting a storage and finding out — the same second I did — which VMs just lost their boot disks.

So I built the version that has to show me first. Meet Proximo. 🧵

[John Broadway @JEBroadway]

I'm not claiming first, most-tools, or "the only one with trust" — proxxx and RekklesNA's ProxmoxMCP-Plus both have real trust mechanisms. Credit where due.

And risk ratings are advisory, not a sandbox: LOW = "no state change," not "safe."
