- Research direction
- Investigate how libvirt/qemu handles USB device passthrough (e.g., using device usb host). Review the current lume CLI source code for VM management to understand the existing architecture. Look for any related configuration files or modules. Check if there are any existing discussions or PRs about this feature. Consider implementing a usb flag that accepts device vendor/product IDs or bus addresses.
