Proxmox Ops runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 548 installs a week from pypi. Last commit 28 Oct 2026.
Proxmox VE diagnostics, backup audits, maintenance planning and guarded VM operations.
Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check Proxmox Ops every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
