Rootpilot SSH Diagnose runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 53 installs a week from npm. Last commit 13 Jul 2026.
Read-only SSH server diagnostics via a fixed 38-command whitelist; secrets redacted, no write path.

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.
We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start:
RP_HOSTS (Path to your hosts.json (see hosts.example.json in the repo)), RP_PROBE_URL (Target URL for the outbound-connectivity / DNS probes (default: https://cloudflare.com)).
The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
