Step-by-step project for writing a GUI utility that can connect remotely via ssh to a minimal net install Trisquel server on which only qemu-kvm, libvirt-daemon-system, libvirt-clients, and bridge-utils are installed. It should be able to start and stop virtual machines that are already there. (We will take the config and disk that was created in Virt Manager)

Please note that this is the simplest Linux build and ready-made GUIs do not run (or rather, they run but do not work correctly, this is not ubuntu minimal)

Please estimate the timeline and cost:

A window where you enter: the IP of the remote hypervisor / ssh login and password / the address of the folder where the VM configs for root and user sessions to launch virtual machines are located.
A button to connect to the remote hypervisor. That is, I enter access to two hypervisors and can choose which hypervisor I will connect to and manage.
A window that displays the list of virtual machines on the hypervisor selected from the list. Displaying the status of the virtual machine (on / off). The ability to turn on / off / reboot the virtual machine.

This is the minimum to check the functionality of all this.

The main problem is that ready-made GUIs (except for Virt Manager) do not want to work and connect the network bridge for the virtual machines that I create.

Hello, Max!
My name is Mykola, we are a small team of developers that quickly does any work. I understand that you have a minimal Trisquel setup without a ready-made GUI, so we need to create a simple utility with SSH connection, outputting a list of VMs and managing their state.

We can implement this step by step:
- connecting to several hypervisors via SSH,
- displaying a list of VMs with status,
- starting/stopping/rebooting.

If needed, I estimate this project:
- Minimum functionality (as described by you) — $200–300.
- If you also need to refine it for a more user-friendly interface/extensions (for example, logging, multiple user roles, additional VM settings) — it could be $350–500.

If you're interested — write "Yes", and I can agree with you on the details and estimate by stages.
