This is an agent skill providing safe Python Netmiko patterns for SSH automation against network devices. It covers read-only command collection, bounded batch execution, TextFSM parsing, guarded config changes with rollback, timeouts, and error handling.

Use it when writing or reviewing Netmiko-based Python so connection code stays read-only by default, avoids hardcoded credentials, and handles batch and config operations safely.

Use it to

  • Collect show command output from routers, switches, or firewalls
  • Build audit scripts for interface, routing, or config evidence
  • Parse command output with TextFSM into structured data
  • Apply guarded config changes with rollback and before/after evidence
  • Review automation scripts against a safety checklist
