					**SSH for GitHub Actions** is a powerful [GitHub Action](https://github.com/features/actions) for executing remote SSH commands easily and securely in your CI/CD workflows.  
 | 
					 | 
					 | 
					 | 
					 | 
				
			
			
		
	
		
		
			
				
					
					 | 
					 | 
					 | 
					Built with [Golang](https://go.dev) and [drone-ssh](https://github.com/appleboy/drone-ssh), it supports a wide range of SSH scenarios, including multi-host, proxy, and advanced authentication.
