Gumpbox now comes to iPhone and iPad, bringing your server command center with you wherever you work. This release adds a complete mobile experience for managing servers, workflows, files, services, processes, users, disks, cron jobs, tunnels, audit logs, and more. iPad also gets a dedicated adaptive sidebar and split-view layout designed for larger screens. Mobile file transfers are now much more capable, with multi-file upload and download, remote browsing, folder creation, persistent transfer history, and direct support for iOS Files destinations. We also improved mobile performance across the app with faster workflow navigation, scoped activity loading, cached assets, smoother keyboard handling, and more stable server detail layouts while live data loads. Server detail pages now include live stats, emergency actions, and better mobile-friendly controls. Navigation, notifications, empty states, and device-authentication fallback behavior have also been cleaned up across iPhone and iPad. This is a major cross-platform release for Gumpbox: Mac, iPhone, and iPad now work together as one server management workspace.

Connect over SSH, SFTP, Telnet and RDP from one client. Deck is the AI agent in the same window: it runs on real hosts after you approve, and stops on risky steps. Office comes last — Word, Excel or PDF you can open, not a chat log. SSH Key, password, keyboard-interactive, SSH-Agent, GSSAPI. Jump hosts, shared connections, idle disconnect. Type yourself, or let Deck run on one host or a group after you confirm. SFTP Two panes: local left, remote right. List, rename, permissions, new, delete, drag, copy across sessions, edit in place. Point at a folder and move configs or logs in bulk. Telnet Switches and older gear. Prompt, pager and disable-paging for Cisco, Huawei, H3C. Deck can batch Telnet; you still approve. NVT newlines when needed. RDP Windows desktop: scale, full screen, certificate trust, optional Azure AD, clipboard with files, shared folders. Colour depth, keyboard, console session per host. A remote desk, not only a jump box. AI agent Not another chat box. Actions land on the network; files land on disk. Reads what you have, writes real formats, runs only what you approve. Long docs or repos can split across read-only explore sub-agents. Skills and MCP teach playbooks; scheduled tasks hang repeating work on a clock. Production can be stricter than lab. Dangerous steps wait. State goal, inputs, output and constraints once. Example: read-only inspection on this switch group, errors in a table, mark bad ports before any write. No command language to learn. Terminal client Tabs, themes, in-session search, command suggestions. Tabs on one machine share underlying SSH. Idle timeout per host. Broadcast an ACL. Fill snippet variables before send. Recordings replay the incident timeline. OpenSSH keys. Snippets with {variables}; Ctrl+Shift+P. SSH, Telnet and local sessions record as asciicast. Broadcast keystrokes to patch many boxes. Import scans session names only — no foreign passwords. ProxyJump, PuTTY SSH, Xshell, Termius CSV. Re-attach keys in Termini; encrypted sync carries the roster. Office Say the job, get a file — after you are on the machine. Word keeps headings and tables; Excel uses real column names and frozen headers; PDF from scans or Markdown; PPT with title levels and charts. Search the web, read screenshots, send local-path attachments. Skills remember house style; MCP calls internal APIs after approval. One workspace Group hosts as the company is grouped. Import ~/.ssh/config, PuTTY, Xshell, Termius CSV — none bring passwords. Devices, keys, skills, MCP and snippets can sync encrypted. Who it is for People in SSH who still owe slides on Friday. Admin, ops, pre-sales, engineering, network. OpenSSH or Xshell? Import. Against chat-only: a file on disk. Against terminal-only: an agent in the same window. Finish a PPT, RDP to present, SFTP the pack back. Backup before production, preview a patch, see the attachment path — those three stop for you by default.
