Every change recorded for this component, newest first. Days that predate change tracking, or that we cannot explain, say so: "we were watching and nothing happened" and "we were not watching" are different claims.

## MCP tools (2)

### `ssh_execute` (~181 tokens)

Execute a command on a remote server via SSH and return the output. Uses the system SSH binary so ssh-agent, ProxyCommand, and ~/.ssh/config are honoured automatically.

- `command` (string, required): Command to execute on the remote server
- `extraArgs` (array): Extra SSH arguments (e.g., ['-o', 'StrictHostKeyChecking=no'])
- `host` (string, required): SSH server hostname or IP address (e.g., 'dev234' or '192.168.1.100')
- `port` (number): SSH server port (default: 22)
- `timeout` (number): Command timeout in milliseconds (default: 30000)
- `username` (string): SSH username (e.g., 'username'). Defaults to the current OS user.

### `ssh_test` (~88 tokens)

Test SSH connectivity to a remote host. Verifies that the system SSH binary can reach the host using the current agent/config.

Input parameters:

- `extraArgs` (array): Extra SSH arguments
- `host` (string, required): SSH server hostname or IP address
- `port` (number): SSH server port (default: 22)
