A GitHub Action that copies files and build artifacts to remote servers over SSH using SCP. It supports key and password authentication, jump-host proxies, multi-server targets, and integration with GitHub Artifacts.
Use cases
- deploy build artifacts to a server from a GitHub Actions workflow
- copy files to multiple remote hosts via SSH in CI
- upload changed files only during deployment
- transfer files to a Windows server from a Linux runner
- deploy through an SSH jump host / bastion proxy
When to choose
- you deploy files from GitHub Actions to remote servers over SSH
- you need SCP-based transfer with key or password auth inside CI
- you want multi-server or jump-host file deployment in a workflow
When to avoid
- you need SFTP/rsync or non-GitHub CI environments
- your runner cannot run Linux Docker containers
- you need interactive file transfer rather than automated CI deployment
