Scaffold a new NetBox plugin with standard project structure.

Guide the user through setting up a NetBox MCP server for AI agent access.

NetBox server administration: configuration, authentication backends (local/LDAP/SAML/OIDC), object permissions, API tokens, performance tuning, backups, upgrades, and housekeeping. Use when managing a NetBox instance rather than consuming its API.

Best practices for building integrations with NetBox REST and GraphQL APIs. Use when building NetBox API integrations, reviewing integration code, troubleshooting NetBox performance issues, planning automation architecture, writing scripts that interact with NetBox, using pynetbox, configuring Diode for data ingestion, or implementing NetBox webhooks and branching workflows.

NetBox Asset Lifecycle — a commercial NetBox Labs feature that tracks equipment procurement from plan to install (BOMs, vendors, purchase orders, shipments, receiving) plus spares management. Use when working with the asset-lifecycle REST API, driving greenfield procurement or brownfield sparing workflows, or modeling vendors, purchase orders, shipments, and spares pools. Generation, receiving, and install are UI-only — the skill explains how to drive them or hand off.

NetBox Assurance drift detection and deviation management. Use when working with network state comparison, deviation review/remediation, data source configuration, or understanding how intended vs actual network state is reconciled in NetBox Cloud and Enterprise.

End-to-end automation patterns with NetBox — event-driven workflows (event rules, webhooks), infrastructure-as-code (Ansible, Terraform), and GitOps integration. Use when building, advising on, or troubleshooting NetBox automation pipelines.
