+# Proxmox Exporter
+
+## Purpose
+
+The Proxmox exporter exposes Proxmox metrics to Prometheus.
+
+It can be used to monitor:
+
+- Proxmox node health
+- VM and container status
+- Storage usage
+- Cluster resources
+- CPU and memory usage
+
+---
+
+## Recommended Metrics
+
+| Metric Area | Purpose |
+|---|---|
+| Node Status | Verify Proxmox nodes are online |
+| VM Status | Track virtual machines |
+| Storage | Monitor pool and disk usage |
+| CPU | Detect high compute usage |
+| Memory | Detect memory pressure |
+| Cluster | Monitor HA and quorum health |
+
+---
+
+## Security Notes
+
+Do not commit real Proxmox tokens, usernames, passwords, or secrets to GitHub.
+
+Use environment variables or a local `.env` file.
+
+The `.env` file should be included in `.gitignore`.
+
+---
