## What is CommandKit?

CommandKit turns your iPhone and iPad into a full SSH terminal, server dashboard, and AI command assistant — private by design, with no traffic routed through anyone else's cloud.

Unlike clients that sync your servers through a vendor cloud, CommandKit connects you straight to your machines. Your keys and credentials never leave your device.

— WHY COMMANDKIT —

• A real terminal, not a viewer — full VT100/ANSI with htop, vim,
  nano, tmux, and TUI apps that actually work
• Built-in AI assistant — the only SSH client that helps you write,
  explain, and debug shell commands on the go
• Monitoring + terminal in one app — no separate tool, no paywall
  to open a shell

— SSH & CONNECTIVITY —
• Tabbed SSH sessions with per-tab history and TUI support
• Ed25519 & ECDSA key manager with secure Keychain storage
• Safe multiline paste, buffer search (⌘F), clickable URLs
• Full external keyboard support on iPad

— SERVER MONITORING —
• Real-time CPU, memory, disk, network & temperature
• Auto-refresh and an at-a-glance overview of every host

— SECURITY & PRIVACY —
• Face ID / Touch ID for sudo and session unlock
• Direct connection to your servers — no proxy, no middleman
• Session disconnect notifications

— AI ASSISTANT (OPTIONAL) —
• Bring your own API key — you control cost and privacy
• Supports Gemini, OpenAI, and local LLMs (Ollama, LM Studio)
• Works fully offline with the built-in rule-based assistant

— PRODUCTIVITY —
• Command snippets for your frequent workflows
• Custom themes & fonts (Solarized, Dracula, Nord, One Dark)
• Fast native copy/paste

Perfect for developers, sysadmins, DevOps engineers, and anyone managing Linux servers, a VPS, Raspberry Pi, or a home lab from iPhone or iPad — no laptop needed.
