Going through the code, I couldn't find a server but only usage of ssh client. May be I missed it. But I think GP was looking for usecases where its helpful to run an embedded ssh server using a go binary.

Ansible facts can probably be a cross platform way to collect most of the information you need. For the usecases where scp'ng the binary is needed, I think ansible supports jumphost config too. But I agree that for one off tasks, running a single binary is convenient compared to setting up ansible.

Oop - you're right, I missed that they wanted server examples specifically. Thanks for the save.
