RSSH

English | 中文

The SSH client built to be an AI ops copilot.

Connect to a host and just ask "why is the disk full?" — the AI proposes commands, flags their side effects, and runs them in your terminal only after you approve. Sensitive data is redacted locally before anything leaves your machine.

Desktop · Mobile · JetBrains · CLI — one shared data store.

Why RSSH

🤖 AI triage

Not another chat box. Nothing to install on your servers — it works like a human operator, reading the terminal's input and output directly.

🎨 Color-coded command blocks

Every command and its output become a block with a color-coded left edge — spot the last command's output at a glance. Rendered fully locally, zero remote dependency.

🐳 Dynamic discovery

Containers and pods change by the minute — connecting to servers by static IP is obsolete. RSSH dynamically discovers the containers in your local dev and test environments.

🔐 Multi-platform data sync

Keys stay in your local OS keyserver; connection configs are encrypted into your own private GitHub repo — nothing sits on a third-party server.

• Session Recording -- asciicast v2 format, variable-speed playback
• Connections & Credentials -- SQLite storage, import from ~/.ssh/config
• Security & Sync -- secrets encrypted locally with ChaCha20-Poly1305, master key in the platform keychain when available, selective remote sync, encrypted backup to your own GitHub repo or WebDAV server
• Snippets -- reusable command shortcuts (Cmd+E)
• Mobile -- virtual keybar (Ctrl/Alt/arrows/Tab/Esc), safe area, stack navigation
• IDE Plugin -- run RSSH inside JetBrains IDEs in a tool window (shared data dir)

Install

Download from Releases:

IntelliJ / JetBrains plugin

Run the full RSSH UI inside a JetBrains IDE tool window — same hosts, keys and settings as the desktop app (shared ~/.rssh). Each zip bundles a headless rssh-server, so it's self-contained and per-OS:

Install: Settings → Plugins → ⚙ → Install Plugin from Disk…, pick the zip for your OS and restart. Open the RSSH tool window (bottom) to start; the ✕ in its title bar stops the embedded server.

Development
