Mcp Remote Ssh

Full SSH access for AI agents with secret-safe environment injection and automatic output redaction. Persistent sessions, structured execution, SFTP, port forwarding — secrets are fed via stdin (invisible to ps) and scrubbed from all tool responses before reaching the LLM. uvx mcp-remote-ssh

Safe, read-only SSH diagnostics for Linux/Docker servers: a fixed 38-command whitelist (no arbitrary execution), secret redaction, per-command timeouts. Collects evidence; your model does the reasoning. npx @rootpilot/mcp-ssh-diagnose

Fast SSH connection manager with TUI dashboard and MCP server for discovering, searching, and executing commands on remote hosts.

Manage AWS EC2, Hetzner, OVH and custom SSH servers: run commands, fetch logs, CloudWatch/CloudTrail queries, fleet health snapshots, IP banning, S3 — with readonly/standard/dangerous guard tiers and a JSONL audit trail.

MCP server for SSH-based control of remote Linux, macOS, and Windows servers with 46 purpose-built tools instead of one generic command-runner: line-level file editing (no download/edit/upload round-trip), background task launch/monitor/kill, real sudo support, host aliases, recursive directory ops, archive create/extract, and full Unicode via SFTP (avoids PowerShell OEM code page corruption on Windows targets). pip install cygnus-ssh-mcp or uvx cygnus-ssh-mcp.

Developer toolkit: auto-detect stack for AI context files, catch port conflicts, validate .env schemas, spot docs drift, audit dependency licenses, and time coding tasks — 7 MCP tools, one install.

Inspect, manage, and kill local dev servers. Lists what's listening on each port (pid, framework, project, uptime, memory, cpu), diagnoses port conflicts with free alternatives nearby, finds zombie processes, and kills by pid or port with a dry-run default.

SSH & Kubernetes access broker where the model never touches a credential: a separate signer mints per-operation ephemeral SSH certificates and bound ServiceAccount tokens, with a per-command allow/deny/approval firewall (POSIX-sh AST), dry-run, human-in-the-loop approvals, session recording and an Ed25519-chained audit log. Self-hosted Go binaries, GPLv3.

Terminal, filesystem, and background-job tools for Claude Desktop on Linux/macOS. Zero npm deps, pure Node.

Terminal MCP server for AI coding agents with persistent PTY sessions, ring-buffer incremental reads, headless xterm screen capture, multi-agent orchestration, and a real-time web dashboard.

Full-text search over your shell history (zsh / bash / fish) via SQLite FTS5. Local-only. 11-pattern secret redaction runs BEFORE insert. Captures cwd / exit code / duration via opt-in shell hook. Tools: searchhistory, recentindir, failedcommands, commandchains, reindex.

Universal tmux driver: sessions, windows, panes, keystrokes, and pane capture — local or remote over SSH. Curated tools plus a raw tmuxcommand passthrough; works against tmux 1.8+. Shared, visible sessions for pair-programming with the agent. uvx mcp-tmux.
