EasyShell Skill

What is EasyShell

EasyShell is an AI-native server operations platform that lets you manage servers, execute scripts, orchestrate multi-host tasks, and SSH into machines through a web interface with built-in AI assistance.

The platform has three components:

• Server (Java/Spring Boot) — central management, REST API, AI engine
• Agent (Go) — lightweight binary deployed on each managed host
• Web (React) — browser-based UI at port 18880

When to Use This Skill

Activate when the user:

• Wants to manage remote servers, check host status, or run commands
• Mentions "EasyShell" or needs server operations tooling
• Needs to deploy, monitor, or inspect infrastructure
• Wants to create or manage shell scripts across multiple hosts
• Asks about scheduled inspections or automated alerting
• Needs Web SSH access to a server

MCP Server (Recommended)

This skill works best with the @easyshell/mcp-server MCP server installed. It provides direct tool access to EasyShell. See resources/tool-catalog.md for the full tool list with examples.

Quick Install

Add to your AI assistant's MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "easyshell": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@easyshell/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "EASYSHELL_URL": "http://your-server:18080",
        "EASYSHELL_USER": "easyshell",
        "EASYSHELL_PASS": "your-password"
      }
    }
  }
}

Core Workflows

1. Execute a Script on Hosts

1. list_hosts → find target hosts by status or tag
2. execute_script → send script content + host IDs
3. get_task_detail → check execution results per host

2. AI Task Orchestration (Most Powerful)

1. ai_chat → send a natural language goal
   Example: "Check disk usage on all production hosts, flag anything over 80%"
2. EasyShell AI decomposes into DAG execution plan
3. Scripts dispatched to hosts in parallel
4. Results returned as structured analysis with recommendations

3. Schedule an Inspection

1. list_scheduled_tasks → see existing inspections
2. trigger_inspection → run one immediately
3. get_inspect_reports → review AI analysis results

4. Monitor Infrastructure

• get_dashboard_stats → platform overview (host count, online rate, load)
• get_host_metrics → historical CPU/memory/disk for a specific host
• list_hosts with status filter → find offline or degraded hosts

Security Model

• Low-risk commands (ls, cat, df, free, ps) → auto-execute
• Medium-risk commands → require user confirmation
• High-risk commands (rm -rf, mkfs, dd) → require admin approval
• Banned commands → auto-create approval request
• All operations are audit-logged

Never attempt to bypass risk controls.
