About

PixTerm

Read full description

Bring an image or document from your iPhone into a terminal-based coding agent running on your remote machine. PixTerm uploads the item you choose, then inserts its remote path into an editable SSH prompt without sending it. There is no YoungWon Studio account or relay: connections go directly to the SSH server you configure. BUILT FOR TERMINAL AI WORK • Save and organize multiple SSH server profiles. • Work in a VT-compatible terminal with Ctrl, Tab, Esc, arrow keys, copy, and explicit paste controls. • Choose a photo, a regular file, or an image you explicitly paste. • Review the file and remote destination before upload. • Follow upload preparation, progress, verification, and recovery states. • Insert the remote path into an editable prompt without automatically sending Enter. • Use the path with the terminal-based coding agent already installed on your remote machine. PixTerm's file workflow is upload-only. It does not browse or download remote files. CHECK A REMOTE SCREEN • Save VNC profiles independently from SSH profiles. • Connect to compatible Standard VNC servers or macOS Screen Sharing endpoints. • Fit, pan, and zoom the remote screen; switch between Trackpad and View Only modes. • Send pointer, keyboard, special-key, and explicitly confirmed text input. • Return to a linked retained SSH session when one is configured. VNC compatibility depends on the server's negotiated security and encodings. Classic VNC may not encrypt the session; PixTerm shows the transport warning before you save the profile. PixTerm does not provide RDP, audio, remote file transfer, Wake-on-LAN, a hosted desktop, or VNC over SSH. KNOW WHAT YOUR SERVER IS DOING • View live CPU, memory, load, disk, network, process, filesystem, and Docker information. • Move between retained sessions for different server profiles. • Save reusable commands and insert them for review before execution. SECURITY YOU CAN SEE • Review a SHA-256 host fingerprint on first connection. • Block connections when a known host key changes. • Keep passwords and private keys in the device Keychain. • Import supported OpenSSH keys and compatible RSA PEM keys. • Store metadata locally and stage selected files in Application Support only for the transfer workflow. PERSONALIZE THE WORKSPACE Choose light or dark appearance, terminal fonts and sizes, four color themes, and optional feedback settings. Photo/File Paste, new uploads, saved-command actions, VNC connections, and removal of the free SSH server limits require PixTerm Pro, a one-time in-app purchase. Free includes up to two saved SSH server profiles and two simultaneous SSH connections; VNC profiles can be managed before purchase. PixTerm does not create a YoungWon Studio account and does not route terminal content, selected files, or remote-screen data through a YoungWon Studio server. SSH, SFTP, and VNC traffic goes directly to the endpoint you configure. PixTerm does not include or operate an AI model. Any coding agent is a separate tool you install and control on your remote machine, subject to its provider's terms and privacy practices.
