Code Craft AI Interop - vSphere
The codecraftai-restclient-vsphere package is a typed, aspect-driven REST client for the VMware vCenter API. It implements the IVPNControlPlane-adjacent virtualization surface as a sibling to other vendor packages in the ccai suite, built on top of codecraftai-restclient-base. The client replaces the legacy VSphereAgent from codecraftai-landscaping/services/vmware/ — a 606-line agent class plus 29 extension modules — with a RestClientBase-derived VSphereClient and 29 RestApiGroup subclasses.
This package is hand-authored against the documented vCenter REST surface and does not use OpenAPI code generation. The reasoning is recorded in the AGENTS.md “Codegen Decision” section and in the workspace-level PLAN-VPN-AND-CLOUD-PROVISIONING.md §9.2a.
Highlights
VSphereClient — the RestClientBase subclass that handles session-token mint, dual /api and /rest URL composition, and the 29 lazy-cached api-group properties.
VSphereTaskHandle — implements ITaskHandle from codecraftai-foundations; sync-polling with aspects-controlled interval and timeout, injectable clock/sleeper/fetcher for test determinism.
29 apigroups/*Group classes covering certificate management, clusters, compute, content library, crypto manager, datacenter, datastore, deployment, folder, guest, host, hvc, identity, inventory, iso, lcm, namespace management, networks, OVF, resource pool, services, storage, system config, tagging, token service, topology, trusted infrastructure, and VMs.
Content Library deploy (ContentGroup.deploy_ovf_item), OVF deploy from URL or local file (OvfGroup.deploy_from_url / deploy_from_local_ovf), and guest customization (Linux cloud-init + Windows sysprep renderers).
VM lifecycle waiters: wait_for_power_state, wait_for_tools_ready, wait_for_ip_address.
Inventory helpers: find_vm_by_name, find_vm_by_tag, find_datastore_with_free_gb, pick_least_loaded_host — with total tie-breaking ordering and hypothesis property-tested selection determinism.
Events stream (EventsGroup.stream with backpressure + dropped-event counting) and linked-mode helpers (linked_vcenters, for_vcenter).
