Persistent SSH daemon for Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and any AI agent with shell access. No dropped connections between tool calls. No credentials in prompts. No reconnect overhead.
AI coding agents are powerful on your local machine. But the moment they need to touch a remote server — deploy code, check logs, restart a service — they hit the SSH wall.
Every tool call creates a new SSH connection. The connection drops when the tool returns. Next call: reconnect, re-authenticate, lose context. Credentials end up in the prompt or environment variables. Complex commands with pipes and quotes break silently across shell layers.
This is not an AI problem. It is an SSH problem.
sshDCommander runs a persistent daemon on your machine. SSH connections stay alive across all tool calls. Your AI agent calls three simple CLI tools.
SSH connections survive between tool calls. Zero reconnect overhead. The daemon manages the full lifecycle — your agent just calls the CLI.
--help-ai with usage examples for every command. Structured JSON output. Mandatory client-id for multi-agent traceability.
Server profiles store connection details. OS keyring stores passwords. Nothing ends up in the AI context window or prompt history.
Any AI agent that can execute shell commands works with sshDCommander.
