From Ansible to AI: Automating Network Diagnostics with sping

Description and use

<p>Imagine this: a deployment just finished, something is slow, and you have 60 machines in an Ansible inventory.</p> <p>You could SSH into each one. You could run <code>ping</code> 60 times. You could copy terminal output into a spreadsheet and spend the next half hour figuring out which hosts actually have a problem.</p> <p>Or you could turn that inventory into a <strong>machine-readable network report</strong>, filter it in a few seconds, and hand the evidence to a script—or even an AI assistant.</p> <p>That's one of the reasons I built <a href="https://github.com/LambdaBytes/sping" rel="no
