clone_guest

MCP tool from MCP Proxmox by antonio-mello-ai

Clone a VM or CT (full or linked clone, cross-node support)

How to use it

Project documentation lists clone_guest for the MCP Proxmox MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
