SSH Term X vs TerminalCat

Your phone is the command center for your AI agents. Any harness, any model, any language. Japanese, Korean, and Chinese input won't break. CONNECTING IS NOT ENOUGH Agents run for a long time and stop to wait for approval or input. SSH Term lists the agents of supported harnesses on a card for each saved host, with their state: Working, Waiting for input, or Needs approval. See which one is waiting for what, and answer it on the spot. NOT LOCKED TO A HARNESS OR A MODEL Start any agent that runs in a terminal and give it instructions. Models and providers (API keys, Bedrock, and so on) stay as configured on your host. Agents run on your own host, and their conversations stay there instead of going through a third-party service. SUPPORTED HARNESSES The status list and chat view support Claude Code, Codex, Oh My Pi, Pi, and Copilot CLI. YOUR PHONE IS THE COMMAND CENTER Close the app and your agents keep running on the host (kept shells). Reopen it and the tab comes back with the output you missed. Approval requests, input waits, and finished turns reach you as push notifications through the free ntfy app, even with SSH Term closed (Slack, Discord, and Telegram also work). Send the next instruction to a running agent from the chat view. ANY LANGUAGE Instructions to an agent are prose in your own words. Japanese, Korean, and Chinese text often breaks in SSH apps; in SSH Term's IME mode it doesn't break mid-composition, so you can write long, detailed instructions in your own language. ONE-TIME PURCHASE. FEATURES DON'T DISAPPEAR LATER No account and no license server, so features don't disappear later. Every feature is included in the price; the only in-app purchase is an optional way to support development. No subscription, no ads, no telemetry. Your credentials stay on your device. ---------- AGENT LIST AND CHAT VIEW (BETA) Prepare a host once, and agents of supported harnesses started in a PC terminal show up on your phone too. Read a running conversation as a chat and reply or approve from there; what you send never mixes with text half-typed on the PC. KEPT SHELLS (NO TMUX, NO MOSH NEEDED) When the connection drops, the shell stays on the host. Switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data or locking the screen won't stop your work. On reconnect the tab reattaches by itself and shows what you missed. The host only needs a small helper, stagent, which the app installs to ~/.ssh-term/agent after verifying its sha256 (Linux, macOS, and Windows hosts). AI AGENT SESSIONS Resume conversations of supported harnesses from a list, in a kept shell, tmux, zellij, screen, or herdr. CJK INPUT (IME MODE) Compose text in the input box and send it to the terminal in one go; characters still being composed never leak out as commands. ON THE BIG SCREEN OF AN IPAD OR AN OPEN IPHONE DUO Two tabs side by side, a home screen with each host's agent cards, a sidebar of open tabs with those waiting for approval first, and a two-pane filer. With a hardware keyboard, type just like on a PC. Split View works too. SFTP FILE BROWSER AND PREVIEW Check files an agent created or edited without leaving the terminal. Sort, rename, delete, and bookmark folders per host. Syntax-highlighted preview. AUTO-RECONNECT, MULTI-TAB Reconnects automatically when the network drops (up to 3 attempts). Run several connections side by side in tabs. Works over Tailscale SSH. INPUT ASSIST TOOLBAR One-tap Ctrl+C, Tab, Escape, arrow keys, F1–F12, Home/End/PageUp/PageDown, plus your own custom keys and commands. AUTH, KEYS, THEMES Password, public key, and keyboard-interactive auth. Generate Ed25519 or RSA keys in the app and copy the public key with one tap. Themes such as Dracula, Nord, and Tokyo Night; fonts such as Fira Code and JetBrains Mono, plus CJK fonts. SECURITY - Credentials stored encrypted on the device - Host key verification (pinned on first connection) - Lock the app with a PIN, Face ID, or Touch ID - No cloud sync, no telemetry, no account required
