\- A Hostinger VPS (or any Linux VPS) with SSH access
\- Node.js v18 or higher
\## Installation
\### 1. Install the package

\### 2. Create a .env file
Create a .env file in the package directory with your VPS credentials:
VPS\_HOST=your\_vps\_ip\_address
VPS\_USER=your\_vps\_username
VPS\_PASS=your\_vps\_password
\### 3. Register with Claude Code
claude mcp add hostinger-vps --scope user -- npx hostinger-ssh-mcp
\### 4. Verify the connection
claude mcp list
You should see hostinger-vps: ✓ Connected.
\## Usage
In the Claude Code chat panel in VS Code, you can now run commands on your VPS naturally:
\- \"Use run\_command to check disk space on the VPS"\
\- \"Use run\_command to show running Python processes"\
\- \"Use run\_command to tail the last 50 lines of \~/mybot/bot.log"\
\## Security Notes
