Claude skills for SSH: what people ask
Is there a Claude skill for SSH?
There are 50 of them, spread over 37 repositories on GitHub. Named for it and most starred: remote compute ssh (aipoch/open-science, ★ 5.4k), ssh penetration testing (zebbern/claude-code-guide, ★ 4.7k) and ssh configuration (BagelHole/DevOps-Security-Agent-Skills, ★ 1.2k). Stars rate the repository a skill sits in, not the skill.
How do I install a Claude skill for SSH?
For SSH, take the remote-compute-ssh folder from aipoch/open-science (the folder that holds SKILL.md) into ~/.claude/skills/ to use it in every Claude Code project, or into .claude/skills/ for one project. In the Claude apps, zip that folder and upload it as a custom skill in settings.
Are all these SSH skills in English?
No: 5 of those listed, such as chinese git workflow and security audit, are written mainly in Chinese, Japanese, Korean or Russian rather than English, though the SSH task is the same. Claude can follow them either way, but read them before you install.
Should I use a skill or an MCP server for SSH?
A skill teaches Claude a way of working; an MCP server gives it new tools, like access to SSH itself. We list 77 MCP servers for SSH if you need the connection.
Are these SSH skills official?
No. None of the 50 SSH skills comes from Anthropic's own skills repository, so all of them are community-made across 37 repositories.
Can I use these SSH skills at work?
Of the 50 SSH skills listed here, 45 sit in repositories under an open licence such as MIT or Apache 2.0, and 2, such as free my cpu and free my disk, state no licence at all, which legally means you may not reuse them. Check the licence file before you copy one into company work.
