kvm-pilot documentation

Everything for using and developing kvm-pilot, in one place. This folder is the source of truth; the project wiki is an auto-generated, nicely formatted mirror of these pages (built by .github/workflows/wiki-sync.yml on every push to main — edit the files here, never the wiki directly).

• Design decisions — the "looks wrong but is intentional" record, newest first.
• Redfish reference — the BMC driver: hypermedia navigation, auth, and firmware quirks.
• Firmware registry — the firmware-currency check, the community registry data model, and the GitHub-based single-source-of-truth + ingestion design (#80 follow-up).
• Remote firmware update — the GL /api/upgrade/* surface, the reliability/risk model, and the gated firmware-update command (#92).
• Claude skill — the bundled skill for driving kvm-pilot from Claude.
• MCP server — the experimental Model Context Protocol server.

Contributing & security

• Contributing — dev setup, the pre-PR checklist, and engineering principles.
