SSH MCP Server

Description

**An SSH MCP server — a multitool that saves you and your AI agent time and tokens on debugging, development and server maintenance.** Run commands, move files, read logs and audit machines over SSH: a cloud VPS, a bare-metal box, or the BusyBox router in your closet. It uses the OpenSSH client already on your machine — your keys, your `~/.ssh/config`, your jump hosts, your agent forwarding. Nothing bundled, nothing to compile, no native bindings. **18 tools:** run commands and detach long ones as background jobs, move files and whole trees with sha256 verification, search and tail logs, snapshot load and disk, audit a machine in one round trip, check TLS certificates, inspect services. **Built for agents, not for humans.** Answers come back structured, a truncated result is reported as truncated instead of passing for a complete one, and destructive commands are stopped before they run. Works with Claude Code, Codex CLI, opencode, Gemini CLI, Qwen Code, Hermes and any MCP client.
