# mcp-win-stdio-ssh > Advanced Multi-SSH Connection & Remote Management Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server for Windows & Claude Desktop / Claude Code CLI: **34 Tools** for stateful SSH connection pooling, background execution, interactive PTYs, SFTP, and port tunnels. Zero mandatory environment variables (persists dynamically to `~/.mcp-win-stdio/ssh_hosts.json`). Part of the **[mcp-win-stdio](https://github.com/indala/mcp-win-stdio)** suite. --- ## 🌟 Key Features - **Multi-Host Connection Pooling & Persistence**: Connect to unlimited remote servers. Automatically parses `~/.ssh/config` (aliases, identity files, JumpHosts) and persists active host preferences. - **Sticky Active Host**: Run commands against an active default host or specify `host="server_name"` per tool call. - **Remote Execution & Elevated Commands**: Non-interactive command execution (`ssh_exec`), `sudo` password automation (`ssh_exec_sudo`), multi-line script execution (`ssh_exec_script`), and detached background jobs (`ssh_exec_background`). - **Interactive PTY Shell Sessions**: Start stateful pseudo-terminals (`ssh_pty_start`, `ssh_pty_send`, `ssh_pty_read`) for interactive REPLs, prompts, and long-running interactive tools. - **Remote Diagnostics & Services**: System health stats (`ssh_system_overview`), process monitoring (`ssh_list_processes`), systemd / docker / pm2 services (`ssh_list_services`, `ssh_service_action`), and live log tailing (`ssh_tail_logs`). - **High-Performance SFTP**: Explore remote file systems (`sftp_list_dir`), read/write files (`sftp_read_file`, `sftp_write_file`), inspect metadata (`sftp_stat`), and sync local/remote folders (`sftp_upload`, `sftp_download`). - **Port Forwarding & Tunnels**: Create background local-to-remote SSH port forwarding tunnels (`ssh_tunnel_open`, `ssh_tunnel_list`, `ssh_tunnel_close`) to securely access remote databases or web services. --- ## 📦 Installation ```bash # Standalone package installation: pip install mcp-win-stdio-ssh …
