Here are two links :)

on npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@existdb/xst

on github: https://github.com/eXist-db/xst

I am developing it, so I am certainly biased. Also, at the moment you 
need to have NodeJS v20+ installed in order to run it.

For me it is the go to tool for administering eXist-db instances in 
various versions and different platforms.
It is also used in production setups to automate package installation / 
updates.

I run it locally to communicate with a Zoo of servers (locally, over 
VPN- or SSH-tunnels). Connections are managed either by .env files or 
configuration files.

If you have questions regarding xst I am happy to help. Even if you 
decide not to use it I woudl like to learn why :)

Bye,
