Cisco pyATS_MCP

What it does: wraps Cisco's pyATS/Genie testing framework — runs show commands over SSH, parses them into structured data, and can 'learn' and diff device state.

Use it for: turning raw show output into structured facts, verifying config, and before/after state validation on a change.

Notes: read-heavy; needs a pyATS testbed defining your devices.
