Overview
What is mcpsshclient?
mcpsshclient is an MCP server that provides an SSH client with a configurable agentic security agent capable of detecting and preventing "unsafe" commands from executing through an SSH connection. It is designed for developers who need secure remote command execution with automated safety checks.
How to use mcpsshclient?
Clone the repository, run npm install and npm run build, then configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cursor AI, VSCode Insider) to use the built index.js file with the node command. To enable the security agent, set ENABLE_SECAGENT to true and define a SECURITY_POLICY in secagentconfig.json. Prerequisites include installing Ollama, running ollama serve, pulling the llama2 model, and running it.
