A +dashboard shows VM and repository state, and the GUI can start the VM through +libvirt when it is off. + +Work in progress.

Code is generated with the help of AI based on human-provided specifications, design decisions, and iterative feedback. + +All contributions are reviewed, tested, and curated by the maintainer before being included in the codebase. AI is used as a productivity and exploration tool, while human oversight remains central to all decisions. + +The goal is to combine the flexibility of AI-assisted development with standard open-source practices such as transparency, review, and accountability. -- cgit v1.2.3
