sshcommand
A tool that simplifies running single commands over SSH and manages authorized keys for secure remote execution.
What is sshcommand?
SSHCommand is a tool that simplifies running single commands over SSH by managing users and SSH key access control lists (ACLs). It allows administrators to create dedicated users for specific commands and control which SSH keys can execute them, turning SSH into a thin client for remote operations.
System administrators, DevOps engineers, and developers who need to securely expose specific commands on servers via SSH without granting full shell access.
It reduces the complexity of SSH-based command execution, provides fine-grained access control through named key management, and enforces security by default with duplicate key prevention and customizable SSH options.
