What io.github.xlbbb-cn/mcp-ssh-exec-cmd does

Stdio MCP server for SSH host storage and remote command execution with a connection-pool monitor.

Test This Server

This server supports HTTP transport. Be the first to test it - help the community know if it works.

README

mcp-ssh-server

A standalone stdio MCP server that turns SSH host management and remote command execution into MCP tools. It also ships an interactive / batch CLI (remote-ssh-cli) for managing SSH hosts on the local machine.

简体中文文档见 README.zh-CN.md。

This is a Node.js re-implementation of the SSH-host half of a FastAPI project (app/services/llm_tools.py + app/utils/ssh_helper.py + app/models/host.py) — without the backend, without the database, without a network service. Any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Continue, a custom agent, …) can start it with npx and talk to it over JSON-RPC.

Highlights

Fully standalone — its own encrypted JSON store (~/.mcp-ssh-server/hosts.json); no FastAPI backend, no database.
No native dependencies — Node's built-in crypto for AES-256-GCM, pure-JS ssh2 for SSH; runs on Windows / macOS / Linux.
Standards-compliant stdio MCP — speaks the Model Context Protocol stdio transport and can be launched with npx.
Credentials never leave the server — host tool responses never contain a password or a private key; the SSH tools decrypt them internally to open a connection and never echo them back.
Connection pooling — one live SSH session per host, reused across commands and playbook steps.
Pool monitoring — pool_status renders the live pool as a desensitized table: uid, name, connection state, executed / failed commands and the last command (secrets and IP addresses masked).
CLI companion — remote-ssh-cli manages the very same store (interactive TUI, batch commands, CSV bulk import) and can monitor the connection pool live (one frame per second, q quits).

MCP tools

Nine tools are published:

Tool	Description
`cli_help`	Installation / usage / troubleshooting notes for `remote-ssh-cli`, optionally narrowed down with `topic`
`host_list`	List the known hosts — only `sys_name` and `uid` (no address, user name or credential); `uid` is the `host_id` every other tool expects
`host_create`	Add a host (password / private key / passphrase are encrypted at rest)
`host_update`	Patch host fields (omitted credential fields keep their current value)
`host_delete`	Delete a host
`ssh_run_command`	Run a single non-interactive command on a host
`ssh_run_interactive`	Run a command that answers prompts (`sudo`, …) through `expect`/`answer` pairs
`ssh_run_playbook`	Run a multi-step playbook (structured `# @…` directives or legacy `expect:`/`answer:` lines)
`pool_status`	Monitor the live connection pool — one desensitized row per host (uid, name, state, executed / failed commands, last command)

The host identifier contract

host_list is the entry point: every host comes back as exactly two fields — sys_name (the name) and uid (the unique identifier).
Every other tool takes that same value under the name host_id. Pass it back unchanged; never assemble or guess one.
When an id does not resolve, the tool answers with an actionable error: Host '<id>' not found. host_id must be the exact 'uid' value returned by host_list — call host_list to obtain the valid identifiers. Call host_list again and retry with the value it returns.
host_get is deliberately not published to MCP clients: the model only ever sees sys_name + uid, never one host's address, user name or credential. The CLI keeps its own get subcommand for human operators.

Arguments at a glance

Tool	Arguments
`cli_help`	`topic?` — one of `install`, `list`, `get`, `create`, `update`, `delete`, `import`, `monitor`, `tui`, `windows`
`host_list`	`enabled_only?` (bool)
`host_create`	`ip_address` (required), `system_name?`, `ssh_port?` (1-65535, default `22`), `ssh_username?` (default `root`), `ssh_auth_method?` (`password` \| `pubkey`), `ssh_passwo
