About Devops Mcp — Safe Ai Devops & Linux Server Automation Over Ssh

devops-mcp lets AI assistants (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf) connect, scan, plan, and deploy on real Linux servers over SSH — without handing the model the keys to the kingdom. Reading is always allowed; anything that changes state on a production-like server is refused unles

Overview

What is Devops Mcp — Safe Ai Devops & Linux Server Automation Over Ssh?

How to use Devops Mcp — Safe Ai Devops & Linux Server Automation Over Ssh?
