That's a ssh client implemented in chromium, not a web server acting as 
sshd. However...

built inside Google.  Unfortunately
that relay isn't open source, and Google 
doesn't maintain a public pool of relays»

It will depend on how picky the firewalls are. You may prefer to embed 
it into a https stream,
such as using a proxy command of socat - openssl-connect:%h:%p
