Feature & Specification Comparison

Specification	Fauxnix 20000419 Command Line	MCP Ssh Manager bvisible Command Line
Summary	bash for AI agents on Windows via deterministic bash→PowerShell translation — no WSL, VM, or bash toolchain. MCP bash tool with GNU-style output, bash-style errors, coreutils exit codes, session-persisted cwd/env across calls, and per-file UTF-8/GBK sniffing (GBK files grep correctly, unlike Git Bash). Unsupported bash constructs fail loudly with the construct named; native commands (git/node/npm) pass through with argv quoting. npm install -g fauxnix-cli; verified with Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Kimi Code and Qwen Code.	Manage multiple SSH servers from one MCP: command execution, file transfer/rsync, database dump/import/query (MySQL/PostgreSQL/MongoDB), backups & restore, health monitoring, persistent sessions, tunnels, ProxyJump/bastion, and opt-in per-server security modes (readonly/restricted) with audit log. Linux, macOS & Windows OpenSSH.
