Cygnus Ssh Mcp

Overview

Cygnus Ssh Mcp is an SSH-based Model Context Protocol server that gives AI assistants direct control over remote Linux, macOS, and Windows servers through 46 purpose-built tools. Any MCP-compatible AI can invoke these tools during conversations or agent runs, automating server administration and remote operations.

The server runs locally as a Python package installed via uvx cygnus-ssh-mcp and communicates over stdio. It requires no credentials and works immediately after installation. The current release is v1.5.1, available under the GPL-3.0 license with source code at cygnussystems/cygnus-ssh-mcp on GitHub.

Cygnus Ssh Mcp is categorized under Development and integrates with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. Maintainers from cygnussystems are invited to claim this listing to verify ownership and keep information up to date.
