MCP Skill + CLI for VMware vSphere Kubernetes Service (VKS) management — Supervisor clusters, vSphere Namespaces, and VKS Cluster lifecycle. 20 MCP tools.

Companion Skills

Part of the VMware MCP Skills family. Each skill handles a distinct domain — install only what you need.

Skill	Scope	Tools	Install
vmware-aiops ⭐ entry point	VM lifecycle, deployment, guest ops, clusters	49	`uv tool install vmware-aiops`
vmware-monitor	Read-only monitoring, alarms, events, VM info	27	`uv tool install vmware-monitor`
vmware-storage	Datastores, iSCSI, vSAN	11	`uv tool install vmware-storage`
vmware-nsx	NSX networking: segments, gateways, NAT, IPAM	33	`uv tool install vmware-nsx-mgmt`
vmware-nsx-security	DFW microsegmentation, security groups, Traceflow	21	`uv tool install vmware-nsx-security`
vmware-aria	Aria Ops metrics, alerts, capacity planning	28	`uv tool install vmware-aria`

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ — required for uv tool install
vSphere 8.0+ — Workload Management (Supervisor) APIs require vSphere 8.x
Workload Management enabled — WCP must be enabled on at least one compute cluster
License — vSphere Kubernetes Service (Enterprise Plus or VMware Cloud Foundation)

Run vmware-vks check after setup to verify all requirements are met.

Quick Start

# Install
uv tool install vmware-vks

# Configure
mkdir -p ~/.vmware-vks
cp config.example.yaml ~/.vmware-vks/config.yaml
# Edit config.yaml with your vCenter host and username

# One password env var per target, named after the target in config.yaml:
# target "vcenter01" (the one config.example.yaml ships) -> VMWARE_VKS_VCENTER01_PASSWORD
echo "VMWARE_VKS_VCENTER01_PASSWORD=your_password" > ~/.vmware-vks/.env
chmod 600 ~/.vmware-vks/.env

# Verify
vmware-vks check

# Common operations
vmware-vks supervisor status domain-c1
vmware-vks namespace list
vmware-vks tkc list
vmware-vks tkc create my-cluster -n dev --version v1.28.4+vmware.1 --vm-class best-effort-large
vmware-vks tkc create my-cluster -n dev --apply

Offline / Air-Gapped Install (from source)

This project uses the modern PEP 517 build system (hatchling), so there is no setup.py by design — that is expected, not a missing file. If you cloned the source and hit ERROR: File "setup.py" or "setup.cfg" not found ... editable mode currently requires a setuptools-based build, your pip is older than 21.3 and cannot do an editable (-e) install with a non-setuptools backend. Editable mode is a developer convenience, not needed to run the tool — do one of:

# From the source tree — a normal (non-editable) install builds a wheel:
pip install .              # NOT  pip install -e .

# ...or upgrade pip first, and editable works too:
pip install --upgrade pip && pip install -e .

For a truly air-gapped host, build the wheels on a connected machine and copy them over — the target then needs no network:

# On a connected machine, collect this package + its dependencies as wheels:
pip wheel . -w dist        # → dist/*.whl   (or: uv build, for just this package)

# Copy dist/ to the air-gapped host, then install offline:
pip install --no-inde
