Connecting a server

Adding a server

Sidebar → Servers → add:

  • Name — how the server appears in the list.
  • Host — IP or domain.
  • Port — usually 22.
  • User — SSH username.
  • Auth — password or private key.

Secrets (passwords and keys) are encrypted via DPAPI/safeStorage and stay on your computer only.

Connection security

  • On first connection the app stores the server's host key fingerprint (TOFU — Trust On First Use).
  • Subsequent connections verify the fingerprint. If the server suddenly presents a different key, the connection is aborted with a warning — protection against interception.

What you can do with a server

  • Run commands — ask the agent in chat to do something on the server (restart a service, check logs, update files).
  • Browse files — directory listings.
  • Transfer files — upload and download over SFTP/FTP.
