# VPS Server Management ## When to Use - Use when the user asks to operate an authorized VPS or agent running on a remote host. - Use when SSH, deployment, restart, status, or log inspection is needed with explicit permission.

About this skill
What does the vps-server-management skill do?

Manage authorized VPS hosts and server-side agents through cautious SSH and operations workflows.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill vps-server-management --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
