About SSH MCP Tool — Production-Grade SSH Automation for AI Agents

Production-grade MCP server that opens persistent SSH sessions and exposes safe, structured tools for command execution, file operations, transfers, tunnels, package and service management, metrics, resources, and guided prompts. Secure by default: strict host-key verification.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

  "mcpServers": {
    "ssh-tool": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

    }
  }

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
