# Prompts, skills, and agents

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- *"Show me devices running a CVE that's being exploited by ransomware, with outdated antivirus, sorted by exposure."*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.

Download the zip folder here:

[lansweeper__6_.zip](https://cdn.document360.io/21d5935c-1b73-44fa-bf5a-a8b0f5c67f25/Images/Documentation/lansweeper__6_.zip)

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.
