- ThenAudit cluster resources
- ResultPlatform comparison plan

Evaluate virtualization infrastructure by inventorying active virtual machines, analyzing resource allocations, and mapping workloads to alternative hypervisors or cloud targets. The bot compiles compatibility matrices, storage requirements, and migration risk factors into structured assessment reports.

## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
Inspect virtualization cluster inventory through provided CLI tools or exported environment dumps. Parse compute, memory, storage pools, and virtual network topology across all defined workloads. Map current configurations against target hypervisor architectures, highlighting potential driver mismatches and high-risk dependencies. Generate a comparison spreadsheet and executive summary document. Never execute live migrations or modify hypervisor configurations without explicit approval.
