These prompts and skills cover the most common IT workflows. Copy-paste any of them into your connected AI assistant to get started.
Prompts
Asset management
Ask about asset inventory, software, lifecycle status, and hardware across your sites.
- "Which Windows 10 devices hit end-of-support in the next six months, grouped by location?"
- "Which devices are coming off warranty this quarter, broken down by cost center?"
- "What software is most widely installed across the organization?"
- "Show me all assets assigned to the London site."
Security and compliance
Identify vulnerabilities, missing patches, and security gaps. Sort by exposure, filter by site, and combine multiple risk signals in a single question.
- "Show me devices running a CVE that's being exploited by ransomware, with outdated antivirus, sorted by exposure."
- "Where do we have SQL Servers on an end-of-life edition that also missed the last Patch Tuesday?"
- "On which servers is Windows Defender not running?"
- "Which devices are missing antivirus software?"
- "Which systems are unpatched across my EU sites?"
Identity and access
Track user accounts, authentication patterns, and access privileges to spot dormant or risky credentials.
- "Which AD accounts with 'password never expires' haven't logged in for 90 days, and what device did they last use?"
- "List all admin accounts that haven't been active in the past 60 days."
- "Show me all users with local administrator rights on more than five devices."
- "Which service accounts have not changed their password in over a year?"
Infrastructure
Monitor server health, availability, and configuration across your environment. Combine uptime, disk usage, and service status in a single question.
- "Which servers have disk usage above 80%?"
- "Show me all domain controllers and their current uptime status."
- "Which servers are running SQL Server, and what edition and version are they on?"
- "Which of my servers are on-premises versus cloud-hosted?"
- "Are there any Windows services that are set to automatic but currently stopped?"
- "Which servers haven't been seen online in the last 7 days?"
FinOps and licensing
Analyze software spend, license usage, and optimization opportunities to reduce costs and maintain compliance.
- "Which software publishers take up the most real estate in our environment, outside of browsers?"
- "Show me all Adobe Creative Cloud installations and identify devices that haven't launched the software in 90 days."
- "Which Microsoft Office licenses are installed but not assigned to any user?"
Skills and agents
Lansweeper Plugin for Claude Cowork
If you're using Claude Cowork, the Lansweeper plugin includes pre-built skills for common IT workflows. Each skill gives your assistant a specific role and context before it starts working, so you get structured, actionable output without writing a detailed prompt.
The plugin includes the following skills:
Coverage Check: verifies whether a given software or agent is deployed across your fleet and classifies each gap by root cause.
- "Is CrowdStrike installed on all servers?"
- "Which Windows devices are missing the Intune agent?"
EOL Check: identifies end-of-life and soon-to-expire systems and software, ranked by urgency.
- "Which devices are running end-of-life operating systems?"
- "What software reaches EOL within the next 6 months?"
Change Impact Analysis: assesses risk before deploying, upgrading, or removing software. Returns a clear recommendation with supporting evidence.
- "What's the impact of deploying CrowdStrike to all servers?"
- "Can we safely upgrade SQL Server 2017 to 2022?"
Hardware Refresh: scores devices by age, warranty, and health, then groups them into prioritized replacement waves with cost modelling.
- "Build a refresh plan for devices over 5 years old."
- "Which devices need replacement first?"
Document Builder: generates polished output documents when other skills produce results that need a formal deliverable. Supports Word, PDF, PowerPoint, and Excel formats, with flexible branding options.
- "Generate a rollout plan as a Word document."
- "Export the EOL audit results as a PDF."
AI Experience Layer: a behavioural layer that runs across all plugin interactions, ensuring responses are grounded in real Lansweeper data, proportional to the action being taken, and always traceable to a source.
