Gives Claude full SSH access to remote servers through 21 tools covering connections, command execution, and file operations. The standout feature is zero-token SFTP transfers that never pass file contents through the AI context, plus background transfers with progress tracking for large files. Handles multiple simultaneous connections through a connection pool, supports jump hosts and SOCKS proxies, and works with passwords, private keys, or ssh-agent. The quick_connect tool lets you spin up temporary connections without saving credentials. Directory uploads auto-compress with tar.gz before transfer. Reach for this when you want Claude to deploy code, manage services, or move files across servers without manually handling SSH sessions yourself.
