Summary

Implement remote execution capabilities for run_terminal and edit_file tools to enable SSH-based command execution and file editing on remote hosts.

New Tools

  • remote_run_terminal_cmd: Execute shell commands on remote hosts via SSH
  • remote_edit_file: Edit files on remote hosts via SFTP with streaming support

Features

  • SSH connection parsing (user@host:port format, port defaults to 22)
  • Path traversal attack prevention in file operations
  • Output streaming with buffering (MAX_OUTPUT_BYTES = 15KB)
  • Timeout enforcement (default 30s, configurable per operation)
  • Abort signal support for cancellation
  • Command sandbox validation (applies to both local and remote execution)
  • Progress reporting via context.reportProgress
  • Remote target validation before executing operations

Implementation Details

  • remote_run_terminal_cmd: Uses child_process.exec to run SSH commands
  • remote_edit_file: Placeholder for SFTP implementation using ssh2-sftp-client
  • Both tools validate input parameters and implement safety measures
  • Full TDD approach with tests written before implementation

Tests

  • 18 new unit tests (10 for remote edit_file, 8 for remote run_terminal)
  • All existing 1284 unit tests still passing
  • 155 test files passing in total
  • No breaking changes to existing functionality

Acceptance Criteria

  • Unit tests for remote_run_terminal_cmd pass
  • Unit tests for remote_edit_file pass
  • Full test suite passes (1284 tests)
  • No breaking changes to existing tools
  • Tools properly registered in ToolRegistry
  • TypeScript type checking passes
  • All linting checks pass
