What problem does it solve?

This Skill simplifies the process of downloading files from a remote SFTP server, providing options to either receive the file as base64-encoded data or save it directly to a local path on the MCP host.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Base64 Encoding: Retrieve files as base64-encoded data for quick access and manipulation within the session.
  • Local Path Saving: Stream files directly to a local path on the MCP host for larger file handling and persistence.
  • Use Case: When you need to download a large configuration file or backup from a remote server for analysis or storage.

Quick Start

Use the ssh_sftp_download skill to download a file from 'web01.example.com' at '/etc/nginx/nginx.conf' and save it as 'nginx.conf' locally.
