Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00061 | $0.01441 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00024 | $0.00576 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00288 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00144 |
Grade B, and why
ssh-ops scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Unrestricted tool accessmediumExcessive agency
A wildcard tool grant or "run any command" leaves no least-privilege boundary at all.
# Execute arbitrary command How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 161 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Remote Infrastructure Operations
476 tools are available via the bridge-mcp CLI for managing remote servers over SSH.
Golden Rule
ALWAYS use the CLI (bridge-mcp tool ... via Bash) instead of MCP tools.
CLI saves 10-32x tokens compared to MCP by loading schemas on-demand.
Progressive Discovery Workflow
To find the right tool, follow these steps:
Step 1 — Browse groups (~2K tokens)
bridge-mcp list-tools --groups-only
Step 2 — Explore a group (~500 tokens)
bridge-mcp list-tools --group docker
Step 3 — Get tool schema (~200 tokens)
bridge-mcp describe-tool ssh_docker_ps
Step 4 — Invoke the tool
bridge-mcp tool ssh_docker_ps host=myserver --json
Search by keyword: bridge-mcp list-tools --search kubernetes
Syntax Reference
# key=value arguments (auto type-coerced)
bridge-mcp tool ssh_exec host=prod command="df -h"
# Complex/nested args via JSON
bridge-mcp tool ssh_k8s_get --json-args '{"host":"k8s","resource":"pods","namespace":"default"}'
# Multi-file write (inline content + local file upload in one call)
bridge-mcp tool ssh_files_write --json-args '{"host":"prod","files":[{"remote_path":"/tmp/a.conf","content":"key=val"},{"remote_path":"/opt/b.bin","local_path":"/local/b.bin"}]}'
# JSON output for reliable parsing
bridge-mcp tool ssh_docker_ps host=prod --json
# Aliases: t = tool, dt = describe-tool
bridge-mcp t ssh_exec host=prod command="whoami"
bridge-mcp dt ssh_docker_ps
Output Reduction (server-side, runs BEFORE truncation)
describe-tool prints each tool's Reduction Strategy — apply it to avoid
losing data to the output cap:
# JSON output tools: jq filter + TSV (60-80% token savings)
bridge-mcp --jq '.items[] | [.name, .status]' --output-format=tsv tool ssh_k8s_get host=k8s resource=pods
# Tabular tools: keep only needed columns + row limit
bridge-mcp --columns NAME,STATUS --limit 20 tool ssh_docker_ps host=prod
# Raw text (logs, ssh_exec): save full output to a local file
bridge-mcp tool ssh_exec host=prod command="journalctl -u nginx" save_output=/tmp/out.txt
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

ssh-ops is a skill published in the GitHub repository muchiny/bridge-mcp (10 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 61 tokens to every session and 1,441 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (unrestricted tool access). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.

tianji-worker
Use when creating, testing, deploying, invoking, debugging, scheduling, pausing, or rolling back Tianji Workers, or managing their environment variables and shared modules.
ecspresso
ECS deployment tool - deploy, manage, and troubleshoot ECS services.
gateway
Start and manage the Kurtosis gateway for Kubernetes. The gateway forwards local ports to the Kurtosis engine and services running in a k8s cluster. Required when using Kurtosis with Kubernetes. Use when kurtosis engine status shows nothing on k8s or services aren't reachable.
backup-recovery
Design and verify backups and restoration for owned databases, files and application state. Use when preparing recovery, migrating data or testing backups; protect the source and prove restore into an isolated destination before calling recovery ready.
cloudflare-workers
Build and maintain Cloudflare Workers with typed bindings, explicit compatibility and isolated validation. Use when implementing Workers handlers, integrating KV/R2/D1/Durable Objects/Queues or configuring Wrangler; deployment remains governed by the user task and target environment.
kubernetes-operations
Operate and deploy owned Kubernetes workloads with explicit cluster, namespace and rollout identity. Use when configuring Deployments, Services, probes, resources or diagnosing a known workload; do not expand an application task into uncontrolled cluster administration.
