Copy this message into a Claude chat. The AI checks your computer, tells you which file it will change, and waits for your OK every time.

Please install the MCP server Ssh Client MCP Server for Claude on this computer, in this order: 1) Check Node.js with node -v. If it is missing, tell me to install it from https://nodejs.org/en/download; do not install it yourself. 2) Use only this config (already checked by PopNx MCP): { "mcpServers": { "ssh-client": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "ssh-client-mcp-server", "--host", "your-value" ] } } } 3) Tell me the full path of the file you will change, or the command you will run, and wait for my OK. 4) No key is needed. 5) Do what we agreed, then check that the Ssh Client MCP Server tools really show up.

Common questions

Is Ssh Client MCP Server safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed today, and the latest version (1.6.2) reached the registry today.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

SSH Client MCP Server

SSH Client MCP Server is a local Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets LLMs and other MCP clients execute shell commands on remote hosts over SSH. It runs from Linux, macOS, or Windows and targets any reachable SSH server (Linux, macOS, Windows with OpenSSH, etc.).

Built on somamcp — a functional MCP framework on the MCP TypeScript SDK 2.x, with telemetry and introspection.

Monorepo

This repository is a pnpm monorepo with three packages:

Package	npm name	Role
`packages/core`	`@ssh-mcp/core` (private)	Shared SSH pool, tmux command builders, and auth resolution. Bundled into the other packages; not published separately.
`packages/connector`	`ssh-client-mcp-server`	Single-host MCP server (the original package). `exec` + `tmux_*` tools for one configured SSH host.
`packages/orchestrator`	`ssh-fleet-mcp-server`	Multi-host fleet MCP server. Host-routed `exec` + `tmux_*` tools driven by a TOML fleet config.

For the fleet server, start with its README: first run, fleet_setup, audit log, policy, CA mode, and running on several machines (where to register it, installing on a hub, per-hub keys versus CA mode, macOS hosts).

Run the full validation suite across all packages:

pnpm -r validate

Quick Start

Configure your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, etc.) to launch this server via npx — see Client Setup.
Ask your LLM to run shell commands on the target host.

No global install required — npx fetches and runs the latest published version.

Features

Single `exec` tool — runs a shell command on the remote host. A non-zero exit is the failure; a command that exits 0 succeeds even if it wrote to stderr, and its stderr follows stdout under a [stderr] marker. A failure reads exit : then stderr, then stdout under [stdout]; a command a signal ended reads exit 137 (signal KILL).
Four auth modes — password, key file, key from environment variable (e.g. injected by envpkt, Vault, Doppler), or SSH_AUTH_SOCK (system ssh-agent, 1Password, Bitwarden Desktop, KeePassXC).
Smart path expansion — --key supports ~, $VAR, ${VAR}, and relative paths via functype-os. Unresolved variables fail fast with a typed error.
OS-user fallback — --user defaults to the current OS username when omitted.
Fail-fast auth — the SSH key is loaded and validated at server startup, not on the first exec call.
Introspection out-of-the-box — an info tool, auto-registered by somamcp, reports the server's name, version, runtime, and tool counts.
Cross-platform — runs on Linux, macOS, Windows (anywhere Node 22+ runs).

Tools

Tool	Description
`exec`	Execute a shell command on the remote SSH server and return its output.
`info`	Server name, version, runtime, and registered tool counts.

Persistent sessions (tmux)

For driving long-running interactive processes (e.g. a remote coding agent) across calls, the server exposes tmux-backed tools. tmux must be installed on the remote host.

tmux_list — list live tmux sessions.
tmux_send({ session?, input, submit? }) — type input into session (created if absent); presses Enter unless submit: false.
tmux_read({ session?, lines? }) — return the recent pane transcript (lines default 200, max 2000).
tmux_keys({ session?, keys }) — send control/special keys, e.g. { keys: ["C-c"] }.

session defaults to --tmux-session (default agent). Tip: run agents in a line-oriented mode (not a full-screen TUI) so tmux_read returns a clean transcript.

Installation

Run via `npx` (recommended)

No install step — your MCP client launches it on demand. See Client Setup.

Global install

npm install -g ssh-client-mcp-server

then:

ssh-client-mcp-server --host=1.2.3.4 --user=root --password=pass

From source (for contributors)

git clone https://github.com/jordanburke/ssh-client-mcp-server.git

cd ssh-client-mcp-server pnpm install pnpm build

Configuration

The server reads SSH connection info from CLI flags:

Flag	Required	Default	Description
`--host`	yes	—	Hostname or IP of the remote SSH server.
`--user`	no	OS username	SSH username. Falls back to the local OS user (`whoami`) when omitted.
`--port`	no	`22`	SSH port.
`--password`	no\*	—	SSH password.
`--key`	no\*	—	Path to a private SSH key. Supports `~`, `$VAR`, `${VAR}`, and relative paths.
`--key-env`	no\*	—	Name of an env var holding the private key PEM (e.g. injected by envpkt, Vault, Doppler).
`--agent`	no\*	—	Set to `true` to use `SSH_AUTH_SOCK` (system ssh-agent, 1Password, Bitwarden Desktop, KeePassXC).

\*Auth precedence is --password → --key → --key-env → --agent. If none are set the server starts but ssh2 will fail to authenticate on first exec.

Pulling keys from a password manager (Bitwarden / 1Password / KeePassXC)

Each of these can expose your SSH keys via SSH_AUTH_SOCK. Unlock the vault, confirm the agent is enabled, then run with --agent=true — the server never sees the private key.

# verify the agent is reachable

ssh-add -l

launch the MCP server through it

ssh-client-mcp-server --host=1.2.3.4 --user=root --agent=true

For Bitwarden Desktop ≥ 2024.12: enable Settings → SSH agent, then on macOS confirm launchctl getenv SSH_AUTH_SOCK points at Bitwarden's socket.

Pulling keys from envpkt (or any tool that injects env vars)

Store the PEM as a sealed value in envpkt.toml, then launch via envpkt exec:

envpkt exec -- ssh-client-mcp-server --host=1.2.3.4 --user=root --key-env=MY_SSH_KEY

Same pattern works for HashiCorp Vault, Doppler, Infisical, AWS Secrets Manager, or any wrapper that lands the key in process.env.

Client Setup

Claude Desktop (`claude_desktop_config.json`)

"mcpServers": { "ssh-client-mcp-server": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "ssh-client-mcp-server", "--host=1.2.3.4", "--user=root", "--key=~/.ssh/id_ed25519"] } } }

Password auth

Replace the --key arg with --password=hunter2. Avoid checking this into version control.

Using the current OS user

Omit --user entirely — the server defaults to your local username.

Other MCP clients

Any client that speaks the stdio MCP transport works. Same command / args shape.

Testing

Against a published build

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector npx ssh-client-mcp-server --host=1.2.3.4 --user=root --key=~/.ssh/id_ed25519

Against a local build (after `pnpm build`)

pnpm inspect

This builds and launches the MCP Inspector pointed at dist/index.js.

Development

All tooling is delegated to ts-builds:

pnpm validate      # format → lint → typecheck → test → build

pnpm test # vitest run pnpm test:watch # vitest watch mode pnpm build # production build to dist/ pnpm dev # tsdown watch mode to lib/ pnpm inspect # build + launch MCP Inspector

Pure helpers (parseArgv, validateConfig, resolveAuth, effectiveUser) live in src/config.ts and are covered by test/config.spec.ts (18 cases, including tempfile-backed key reads and env-var expansion).
