About Easton-OU/rootpilot-mcp

An MCP server that provides a controlled, read-only SSH interface for system diagnostics. It exposes common diagnostic commands as tools that any MCP-compatible LLM can invoke. The server enforces safety by restricting writes and limiting command scope.

Best for

Developers who want to let LLMs safely query remote server health without granting full shell access

Use cases

  • Running disk usage and memory checks on remote servers via an LLM
  • Automating server health monitoring without granting full shell access
  • Enabling LLMs to inspect system logs and uptime safely

Notes

0 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2026-07-13. Licensed MIT.

Pros

  • Read-only design prevents accidental system changes
  • Works with any LLM client that supports the MCP protocol
  • Written in TypeScript, easy to extend or audit

Cons

  • Requires manual SSH key setup and server configuration
  • Limited to diagnostic commands, cannot perform maintenance tasks
  • New project with zero stars, minimal community support
