  const fs = createSshFs(client)
  
  // List directory
  const files = await fs.list('/path/to/dir')
  
  // Read file
  const content = await fs.readFile('/path/to/file.txt')
  
  // Write file
  await fs.writeFile('/path/to/file.txt', 'Hello World')
  
  // Get file stats

• list(remotePath) - List directory contents
• mkdir(remotePath, options?) - Create directory
• rmdir(remotePath) - Remove directory

File/Directory Manipulation

• cp(from, to) - Copy file or directory

• lstat(remotePath) - Get file stats (does not follow symlinks)
• realpath(remotePath) - Get canonical path
• readlink(remotePath) - Read symlink target
• getFolderSize(folderPath) - Get folder size and file count

Permissions

• chmod(remotePath, mode) - Change file permissions

Utilities

• runExec(command) - Execute raw shell command

Transfer

import { Transfer } from 'ssh2-scp/transfer'

const transfer = new Transfer(fs, {
  type: 'download', // or 'upload'
  remotePath: '/remote/path',
  localPath: '/local/path',
  chunkSize: 32768,
  onProgress: (transferred, total) => {
    console.log(`Progress: ${transferred}/${total}`)
  }
})

await transfer.startTransfer()

• type - Transfer type: 'download' or 'upload'
• remotePath - Remote file/folder path
• localPath - Local file/folder path
