MCP SSH Server: 37 tools for remote SSH management | Claude Code & OpenAI Codex | DevOps automation, backups, database operations, health monitoring
Implements Model Context Protocol (MCP) as a stdio-based server that exposes 37 tools for SSH operations, supporting connection pooling, automatic reconnection, and multi-hop proxy chains through bastion hosts. Beyond standard SSH commands, includes specialized DevOps tools for database backups (MySQL/PostgreSQL/MongoDB), real-time health monitoring (CPU/RAM/disk/services), and role-based tool activation to reduce context overhead by up to 92%. Integrates directly with Claude Code and OpenAI Codex via MCP standard, with configuration via `.env` or TOML supporting SSH agents, passphrase-protected keys, and per-server platform detection for cross-platform compatibility.
About ssh-mcp
tufantunc/ssh-mcp
MCP server exposing SSH control for Linux servers via Model Context Protocol.
Implements two execution tools (`exec` and `sudo-exec`) with configurable command timeouts and automatic process abortion on timeout, supporting both password and key-based SSH authentication. Built on the official MCP SDK with stdio transport, it integrates with AI coding assistants like Claude Desktop and Cursor to enable LLM-driven remote command execution with optional sudo/su elevation. Includes safeguards like command character limits and graceful timeout handling to prevent hung connections.
