Iterminal

Overview

Iterminal is an MCP server that lets you control SSH servers directly through Claude and other AI assistants. By connecting Iterminal to your MCP client, you gain the ability to manage SSH connections and interact with remote terminals as part of your AI conversations, letting the model decide when and how to use these tools.

Iterminal runs locally on your machine via the npm package iterminal-mcp-server, which communicates over stdio. No authentication or credentials are needed—it works immediately after installation. The latest release is v2.1.0, distributed under the MIT license with source code available at iTophua/iterminal on GitHub.

Iterminal belongs in the Development category on mcp.site and is compatible with all MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and others. If you maintain Iterminal, you're welcome to claim this listing to verify ownership and keep the information up to date.
