Check Your Proxmox Servers and Backups Through Your Muse

Through a custom connector, your muse can check your Proxmox VE cluster in plain words: which machines are running, how full storage is, and when each machine was last backed up.

What it does

The connector adds 11 tools and it is read-only by design. It can read the Proxmox version, list every node, virtual machine, container, and storage across the whole cluster in one call, and show status with CPU, memory, and disk use for each one. For a single node it shows load, uptime, and root disk use. For a single virtual machine it shows live status and its full setup, including disks, network cards, boot order, and notes. It can list the containers on a node, list storage with total and used space, list backup files with their date and size, and list recent tasks so a failed backup or migration is easy to spot. Nothing in the connector can start, stop, or change a machine.

How to use it

1. Start an AnythingMCP account and add the Proxmox VE connector.
2. In Proxmox, open Datacenter, then Permissions, then API Tokens, and add a token for a read-only user. Keep Privilege Separation checked and give the token the PVEAuditor role at the root path.
3. Copy the server address, the full token name, and the token secret into the connector settings. The secret shows only once, so save it at that moment.
4. In Muse, open Settings, then Connectors, and add a custom connector with the address AnythingMCP gives you. Sign in and approve.
5. Ask the muse to list the cluster, check storage, or show the last backup for a machine.

What you need

• A Muse account that can add custom connectors
• An AnythingMCP account with the Proxmox VE connector added
• A Proxmox VE server with an API token set to the PVEAuditor role

What to watch for

• The token controls what the muse can see. With PVEAuditor it can read everything and change nothing, which is the right setting for status checks.
• Muse connects from the cloud, not from your computer, so the Proxmox address must be reachable over the public internet with HTTPS. A local address alone will not connect.
• Backup dates come from the files held on the storage you pick. If a backup job writes to a different store, check that store too.
• This is a custom connector, and Meta does not review custom connectors. You can disconnect it in Settings at any time. The muse prepares, you decide.
