I built that initially for an AI chat bot that allows teams to perform DevOps tasks straight out of Slack/Teams (with proper permission control, obviously).Useful to let developers perform mundane tasks, or help coordinate incident response.I ended up using it myself on my own machine to manage Hetzner and AWS boxes. I thought that may be useful to others.The default policy should be good enough, but if you don't like living dangerously, you can set it to `paranoid`.Install: `pi install npm:pi-hosts`GitHub: https://github.com/hunvreus/pi-hosts
