Replit SSH MCP server

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

• replit_check_connection

  Check SSH connectivity to a Replit project. Verifies the connection works and reports the working directory, SFTP support, and server information. Use this to validate setup before file operations. Set verbose=true for detailed diagnostics when troubleshooting auth or connection failures.

• replit_delete_filewrite action

  Permanently delete a file from a Replit project (files only, not directories). Deletion is irreversible — there is no trash. Enabled by default; approval gating is the responsibility of the host tool-approval layer.

• replit_list_files

  List files and directories in a Replit project path. Returns file names, sizes, and types (file/directory). Use "." for root or specify a subdirectory path.

• replit_move

  Move or rename a file or directory within a Replit project. Never overwrites: fails if the destination already exists. The destination parent directory must already exist.

• replit_read_file

  Read the contents of a file from a Replit project. Returns the file content as text. For binary files, returns base64-encoded content.

• replit_search_files

  Search a Replit project for files by name substring and/or text content substring (case-insensitive). Recursive from the given path with result caps; returns matching paths and, for content matches, the matching lines. Use this to find where a name, key, or string is used without reading every file.

• replit_setup_ssh

  Set up SSH keys and configuration for connecting to Replit projects. Generates an Ed25519 key pair, configures ~/.ssh/config, and provides the public key for the user to add to their Replit account. Safe to run multiple times — skips steps already completed.

• replit_stat

  Get metadata for a file or directory in a Replit project without reading its contents: type, size, permissions, and modification/access times.

• replit_write_filewrite action

  Write content to a file in a Replit project. Creates parent directories if needed. Uses atomic write (temp file + rename) and verifies the write by reading back. For binary files (images, etc.), pass base64-encoded content with encoding "base64".
