# SSH Bridge CLI -- Remote Tool Execution

Execute MCP tools on remote hosts or manage bridge configuration via CLI.

## Current state

Host status:
!`bridge-mcp status 2>/dev/null || echo "bridge-mcp not found -- install with: cargo install --git https://github.com/muchiny/bridge-mcp --features full"`

## Instructions

### No arguments or status

Show host status (above) and available tool groups:
!`bridge-mcp list-tools --groups-only`

Then ask the user what they want to do.

### Config mode

Help the user configure the bridge:

1. Config file: `~/.config/bridge-mcp/config.yaml`
2. Validate: `bridge-mcp validate`
3. Example config: see https://github.com/muchiny/bridge-mcp/blob/main/config/config.example.yaml

**Adding a host:**

```yaml
hosts:
  my-server:
    hostname: 192.168.1.100
    port: 22
    user: admin
    description: "My server"
    auth:
      type: key
      path: ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
```

**Security modes:**

```yaml
security:
  mode: standard  # strict | standard | permissive
```

### Tool group name (e.g., docker, kubernetes, systemd)

List tools in that group:
!`bridge-mcp list-tools --group $ARGUMENTS`

### Search query

Search tools by keyword:
!`bridge-mcp list-tools --search $ARGUMENTS`

### Tool name with key=value pairs

Execute the tool:
!`bridge-mcp --json tool $ARGUMENTS`

### Workflow reminders

1. Verify connectivity with `status` before executing tools
2. Use `--json` output for structured parsing
3. Use `--dry-run` before destructive operations
4. Use `jq_filter` or `columns` params to reduce output tokens
