SSH Tunnel extends your AI assistant with the ability to sSH tunneling, port forwarding, and remote access patterns. Use when setting up local/remote/dynamic port forwards, configuring jump hosts, managing SSH keys, multiplexing connections, transferring files with scp/rsync, or debugging SSH connection issues. Rather than leaving your conversation to handle this manually, you can ask your Claude agent directly β and it will take care of the task end-to-end, using SSH Tunnel as its underlying capability.
SSH Tunnel works across Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) β an open standard that lets AI clients share tools and skills without lock-in. Because MCP is platform-agnostic by design, you install SSH Tunnel once and it becomes available across all your AI clients. Whether you're working in Claude for focused sessions or Cursor for integrated workflows, the skill behaves consistently.
Getting started with SSH Tunnel takes about two minutes. Place the skill at `~/.claude/skills/ssh-tunnel/` (personal, all projects) or `.claude/skills/ssh-tunnel/` (project-specific), then restart your AI client. From that point, typing `/ssh-tunnel` in any conversation activates it, or the AI will use it on its own when it detects a relevant request.
SSH Tunnel has been installed 3,996 times, making it one of the more actively used skills in the Documents & Notes category. The install rate suggests it solves a real, recurring need rather than a niche edge case. Like all skills on DiscoverAISkills, it is free to install and use. The broader AI skills ecosystem continues to expand as developers contribute new capabilities across categories like developer tools, data analysis, writing, automation, and more.
Place the skill folder at ~/.claude/skills/ssh-tunnel/ for personal use (all projects), or .claude/skills/ssh-tunnel/ for project-specific use. Restart your AI client, then invoke with /ssh-tunnel or let the AI discover it automatically.
SSH Tunnel supports Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw. It integrates seamlessly with these AI platforms to extend their capabilities.
SSH Tunnel is free to install. Check the repository for licensing information.
