What It Does

ssh-mcp (based on mcp-ssh-manager) is an MCP server that enables Claude Code to manage multiple SSH connections. Execute commands, transfer files, manage databases, create backups, monitor health, and automate DevOps tasks across your servers — directly from your AI assistant.

  • Core (5) — list servers, execute commands, upload, download, sync files
  • Sessions (4) — persistent SSH sessions that maintain shell context across commands
  • Monitoring (6) — health checks (CPU, RAM, disk), service status, process manager, alerts
  • Backup (4) — create/list/restore/schedule automated backups for MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and files
  • Database (4) — safe dumps, imports, schema exploration, read-only queries with SQL injection prevention
  • Advanced (14) — deployment with permissions, sudo execution, SSH tunnels, server groups, aliases, hooks, profiles

Key Features
