"""
Hardware/Software Inventory Label Creator for Checkmk Discovery
INTENTION

This module provides WATO UI configuration for automatically generating host labels
from the Checkmk Hardware/Software (hwsw) inventory. The hwsw inventory contains
detailed information about:

  • Hardware components (CPU, memory, disks, network interfaces, etc.)
  • Software installed (packages, services, configurations, etc.)
  • System characteristics (vendor, model, serial number, BIOS version, etc.)
    By configuring label creation rules in WATO, administrators can:
  1. Extract inventory data using path-based selectors on the hwsw tree structure
  2. Transform extracted data into human-readable host labels
  3. Use these labels for grouping, filtering, and organizing hosts in Checkmk
    """

This is a placeholder file that documents the intended functionality.

The actual implementation will follow when the feature is developed.

See examples above for the vision of how hwsw inventory data will be

transformed into useful host labels for Checkmk monitoring.
