l on the main screen opens "Tasks", the recent cluster tasks newest
first. l on the info screen shows only that guest's tasks. Columns:
start, duration (or "running"), node, type, VMID ("-" for node
tasks), user and status. A failed task gets a "!" in the leading
column. Enter opens the task's log in a plain-text widget, so the
output is never parsed as markup.
`task list -o json` has no start or end times, so the list comes from
`/cluster/tasks`. The upid is validated (it must start with "UPID:")
before it goes in as a positional argument.
Review fixes:
- A finished task without a start time no longer crashes the app; its
duration shows "-".
- "running" now means there is no endtime. A finished task with an
empty status shows "unknown" and is flagged.
Read-only live check: 25 tasks listed, and the log of the newest
(vzdelsnapshot 104) ends with TASK OK.
Closes #10

cv4pve-cli-tui
Textual TUI for cv4pve-cli: list Proxmox VE
guests (VMs and LXC), start/shutdown/stop/reboot them, and change cores, memory and
disk size. The table shows CPU % and Mem % of running guests and the info screen shows
in-use values (refresh with g).
It shells out to cv4pve-cli and uses its current context (cv4pve-cli config use <name>);
it stores no credentials itself. Tested with cv4pve-cli 2.4.0.
Run
uv run cv4pve-tui
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
s |
start |
S |
shutdown (confirm) |
x |
stop - hard power-off (confirm) |
r |
reboot (confirm) |
Enter |
info: resources (CPU, memory, swap, disks), backups, backup job, network (config and runtime IPs) |
Enter then e |
in info: edit cores / memory / grow a disk (disk growth asks again; it cannot be undone) |
Enter then b |
in info: backup now (snapshot, zstd, storage choice); a there = also show backups of earlier guests that had the same VMID |
Enter then n |
in info: edit network (bridge, VLAN, firewall, IPv4/IPv6; VM IP via cloud-init at next boot); u there = undo the last network change of this guest (this session only) |
Enter then p / R / D |
in info: take a snapshot (name, description, VM: include RAM) / roll back to the snapshot under the cursor (confirms; starts the guest again if it is running) / delete the snapshot under the cursor (confirms) |
t |
shell in a running LXC container (ssh -t root@<node> pct enter <vmid>) |
l |
tasks: recent cluster tasks (start, duration, node, type, VMID, user, status; ! marks failures); Enter shows the log of the task under the cursor, g reloads. In info: l = only this guest's tasks |
g |
refresh |
c |
switch cv4pve-cli context (cluster) |
q |
quit |
Warning: link changes (bridge, VLAN, firewall) apply immediately on a running guest and can cut its network (and DNS for others if the guest is your DNS server). IP changes on a running container may need a reboot of the container (seen: static -> DHCP gave no IPv4 until a reboot).
The shell key needs key-based root SSH to the PVE node (LXC only).
Switching context runs cv4pve-cli config use, which changes cv4pve-cli's global current
context: other shells and scripts follow, and it stays after the app exits.
A ! in the first column marks a guest that no backup job covers (Proxmox's
not-backed-up list); the frame's bottom border shows how many.
Empty fields in the edit dialog are left unchanged. If a CPU/memory change cannot be hot-plugged, the app tells you it applies at the next reboot.
Development
uv sync
uv run pytest
uv run ruff check src tests && uv run ruff format --check src tests
Tests mock cv4pve-cli; they never touch a cluster. CI (.gitea/workflows/ci.yaml) runs
the same commands on every PR into main; ruff is pinned in the dev group so local runs
and CI check the same rules. Design: docs/plans/guest-tui-mvp.md.
