### Data Sources

**sshsync CLI:**
- Installation: `pip install sshsync`
- Configuration: `~/.config/sshsync/config.yaml`
- SSH config integration: `~/.ssh/config`
- Group-based host management
- Remote command execution with timeouts
- File push/pull operations (single or recursive)
- Status checking and connectivity validation

**Tailscale:**
- Zero-config VPN with WireGuard encryption
- MagicDNS for easy host addressing
- Built-in SSH capabilities
- Seamless integration with standard SSH
- Peer-to-peer connections
- Works across NATs and firewalls

### Coverage

**Operations:**
- Host status monitoring and availability checks
- Intelligent load-based task distribution
- Multi-host command execution (all hosts, groups, individual)
- File synchronization workflows (push/pull)
- Deployment pipelines (staging → production)
- Backup and sync workflows
- Rolling restarts with zero downtime
- Health checking across services

**Geographic Coverage:** All hosts in Tailscale network (global)

**Temporal Coverage:** Real-time status and operations

### Known Limitations

**v1.0.0:**
- sshsync must be installed separately (`pip install sshsync`)
- Tailscale must be configured separately
- SSH keys must be set up manually on each host
- Load balancing uses simple metrics (CPU, memory, disk)
- No built-in monitoring dashboards (terminal output only)
- No persistence of operation history (logs only)
- Requires SSH config and sshsync config to be manually maintained

### Planned for v2.0

**Enhanced Features:**
- Automated SSH key distribution across hosts
- Built-in operation history and logging database
- Web dashboard for monitoring and operations
- Advanced load balancing with custom metrics
- Scheduled operations and cron integration
- Operation rollback capabilities
- Integration with configuration management tools (Ansible, Terraform)
- Cost tracking for cloud resources
- Performance metrics collection and visualization
- Alert system for failed operations
- Multi-tenancy support for team environments

**Integrations:**
- Prometheus metrics export
- Grafana dashboard templates
- Slack/Discord notifications
- CI/CD pipeline integration
- Container orchestration support (Docker, Kubernetes)

## [Unreleased]

### Planned

- Add support for Windows hosts (PowerShell remoting)
- Improve performance for large host groups (100+)
- Add SSH connection pooling for faster operations
- Implement operation queueing for long-running tasks
- Add support for custom validation plugins
- Expand coverage to Docker containers via SSH
- Add retry strategies with exponential backoff
- Implement circuit breaker pattern for failing hosts
