container-management
Manage Proxmox LXC Containers
Container operations in Proxmox require clear status checks, lifecycle actions, and resource planning. This skill guides Claude, Codex, and Claude Code through structured LXC workflows.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "container-management" from https://skillstore.io/skills/dataknifeai-container-management.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/dataknifeai-container-management/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "container-management". List all containers on the worker node.
Expected outcome:
A concise table-style summary with container IDs, names, status, CPU, memory, disk use, and notable warnings.
Using "container-management". Create a container with 2 cores and 4GB RAM.
Expected outcome:
A proposed configuration, required parameters, validation checklist, and reminder to confirm storage and network settings.
Using "container-management". Find containers that need resource tuning.
Expected outcome:
- Containers with high memory pressure.
- Containers with low CPU use and oversized allocations.
- Suggested changes with operational impact notes.
Security Audit
SafeAll static findings were reviewed against SKILL.md. The external command detections are Markdown inline tool names, and the system reconnaissance detection is a benign hostname best practice.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Daily Container Operations
Review container status, start stopped services, and confirm resource use across a node.
Deployment Preparation
Create or clone LXC containers with planned CPU, memory, storage, and hostname settings.
Capacity Review
Compare container allocations and identify candidates for tuning or redistribution across nodes.
Try These Prompts
List containers on node <node> and summarize status, CPU, memory, and storage allocation.
Get the status and full configuration for container <id>, then flag unusual resource or state values.
Clone container <source_id> for testing. Recommend target settings, validation steps, and rollback checks before changes.
Review containers across nodes and recommend placement or resource changes for balanced CPU, memory, and storage use.
Best Practices
- Confirm node, container ID, and backup status before destructive actions.
- Use graceful shutdown before immediate stop when possible.
- Document hostname, purpose, owner, and resource plan for each container.
Avoid
- Deleting containers without checking backups and attached storage.
- Cloning production containers without changing identity and network settings.
- Increasing resource limits without reviewing node capacity.
