Research direction
Examine the python skeletons repository at https://github.com/JetBrains/python skeletons to understand the skeleton file format and structure. Map the public API of pyVmomi (vSphere Python bindings) from its source code to create corresponding skeleton files. Start by identifying commonly used modules and classes in pyVmomi, then write skeleton files with type annotations following the conventions in python skeletons.
