SHORT DESCRIPTION
    PowerShell module for administering and querying Frigate NVRs.
 
LONG DESCRIPTION
    This module provides a set of PowerShell cmdlets to authenticate to, query,
    and manage Frigate servers via their HTTP API. It is intended for technical
    types like system administrators who need to inspect configuration, list
    events, manage users, or perform administrative actions such as restarting a
    Frigate instance.
    Commands are simple wrappers around Frigate API endpoints and return
    PowerShell objects suitable for inspection, filtering, or export. Use
    `New-FrigateSession` to authenticate, then run subsequent commands against
    that session.
 
Optional Subtopics
    Common tasks:
    - Inspecting server configuration (`Get-FrigateConfig`).
    - Listing recent events (`Get-FrigateEvent`, `Get-FrigateReview`).
    - Managing users (`Get-FrigateUsers`, `New-FrigateUser`, `Set-FrigateUser`,
    `Remove-FrigateUser`).
 
EXAMPLES
    Create an authenticated session and list users:
 
    $cred = Get-Credential -Message 'Frigate admin credentials'
    New-FrigateSession -Uri 'https://frigate.example.local' -Credential $cred
    Get-FrigateUsers
 
    This creates a session and displays configured users.
 
NOTE
    Commands that modify server state (creating users, restarting the server,
    changing passwords) require appropriate administrative privileges. Actions
    may interrupt recording or streaming.
 
TROUBLESHOOTING NOTE
    If an operation fails with an authentication error, verify credentials and
    that the Frigate server is reachable from the machine running the cmdlets.
    For network problems, confirm the server URI and any firewall or proxy
    settings.
