English Description
An advanced Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to turn your VPS into a powerful AI-driven remote workstation. It provides a comprehensive set of tools for command execution, file management, system monitoring, and persistent session handling.
🌟 Key Features
- Command Execution: Run shell commands and scripts (Python/Node/Bash) in a sandboxed environment.
- Advanced File Management: Read, write, patch, search, and visualize directory trees.
- Persistent Sessions: Based on
tmux, allowing AI to handle long-running or interactive tasks. - System Monitoring: Real-time process listing and system resource tracking.
- Network Capabilities: Make HTTP requests or download large files directly to the VPS.
- Flexible Transport: Supports both
stdioandSSE(HTTP) modes.
⚡️ Quick Run with npx
You can run the server directly without cloning the repository:
# stdio mode (for local use)
npx github:zhy1369800/vps-mcp-server
# SSE mode (for remote VPS deployment)
MODE=sse PORT=8080 MCP_TOKEN=your-token npx github:zhy1369800/vps-mcp-server

中文说明
这是一个先进的 Model Context Protocol (MCP) 服务端,旨在将您的 VPS 变成一个强大的 AI 驱动远程工作站。它为 AI Agent 提供了完整的指令执行、文件管理、系统监控和持久化会话处理工具集。
🌟 核心特性
- 指令执行:在沙箱环境中运行 Shell 命令和脚本(Python/Node/Bash)。
- 高级文件管理:支持读取、写入、增量补丁(Patch)、全文搜索及目录树可视化。
- 持久化会话:基于
tmux实现,允许 AI 处理耗时较长或需要交互的任务。 - 系统监控:实时查看进程列表、CPU、内存及磁盘占用情况。
- 网络增强:直接从 VPS 发起 HTTP 请求或下载大文件到磁盘。
- 双模式支持:支持
stdio本地调用和SSE(HTTP) 远程调用模式。
⚡️ 使用 npx 快速运行
无需克隆代码即可直接启动服务:
# stdio 模式 (本地使用)
npx github:zhy1369800/vps-mcp-server
# SSE 模式 (远程 VPS 部署)
MODE=sse PORT=8080 MCP_TOKEN=your-token npx github:zhy1369800/vps-mcp-server
