# sshDCommander

**Persistent SSH daemon for AI agents and DevOps automation.**

sshDCommander bridges AI agents to remote servers with persistent SSH sessions, SHA-256 verified file transfers, deploy manifests, and certificate-based authentication.

## Why sshDCommander?

- **Persistent sessions** — daemon maintains long-lived SSH connections across tool calls, eliminating reconnect overhead
- **AI-agent ready** — built for Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Aider, Cline, Windsurf, Codex CLI, and any agent with shell access
- **SHA-256 integrity** — every file transfer is checksum-verified; deploy manifests record and verify deployment state
- **Certificate auth** — built-in Ed25519 CA for certificate-based authentication without password or key sprawl
- **OS keyring** — credentials stored in the OS keyring (DPAPI on Windows, libsecret on Linux), never in config files

## CLI Tools

| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
| `sshdcmd` | Execute remote commands with session reuse |
| `sshdcp` | SFTP file transfer with SHA-256 verification and deploy manifests |
| `sshdctl` | Daemon management, server profiles, certificate authority |

## Quick Start

```bash
pip install sshdcommander
sshdctl start-daemon
sshdctl server add --name prod --host 10.0.1.5 --user deploy
sshdcmd --client-id my-agent "uptime" --server prod --connect
```

## Key Features

- Multi-server session pool (10+ concurrent sessions)
- Auto-reconnect with exponential backoff
- Deploy manifests for deployment integrity verification
- Reverse integrity auditing (drift detection)
- Script mode for complex multi-step workflows
- Multi-locale sudo support
- SSH agent forwarding
- Mandatory `--client-id` audit trail
- Resume interrupted uploads
