Title should be changed to reflect that this is for _virtual_ machines:
>LazySSH is an SSH server that acts as a jump host only, and dynamically starts temporary virtual machines.
>If you find yourself briefly starting a virtual machine just to SSH into it and try something out, LazySSH is an attempt to automate that flow via just the ssh command. LazySSH starts the machine for you when you connect, and shuts it down (some time after) you disconnect.
I would love for a capability like this to be extended to physical machines. I have a dozen SuperMicro servers with IPMI interfaces, an HP server with fully licensed ILO, and a Dell server with a BMC. Being able to control when these go on/off would be very nice.

It is VMs at the moment, that’s true, but perhaps only because it’s MVP functionality. If you can start/stop those from some Go code, it could work I think?
