Release 0.1¶
25 July 2026 · View release
Release 0.1 is the first public version of Muxus: a local SSH, Telnet and serial client built around OpenSSH hosts, reusable workspaces and a modern terminal.
The first Muxus workspace¶
The initial release reads the hosts already present in ~/.ssh/config and writes edits back
to the same files. Open a host in a tab, divide the window into resizable panes and save the
whole arrangement as a workspace that can be restored later.
SSH sessions support jump hosts, proxy commands, certificates, agents and the usual key and password authentication methods. Local shells, Telnet connections and serial consoles can live beside them in the same workspace.
Files, editors and tunnels¶
Each SSH session can open an SFTP browser. Remote files open in the built-in Monaco editor, while saved local, remote and dynamic forwards keep running independently of terminal tabs.
The quick launcher searches hosts, tabs, workspaces, commands, tunnels and retained session history from one place.
A terminal that draws¶
The terminal supports kitty, Sixel and iTerm2 images, the kitty keyboard protocol and Nerd Font symbols. Reusable command buttons, keyword highlighting and multi-execution cover the repetitive work around a shell without taking control away from it.
Muxus runs locally and binds its server to the loopback interface. Host organization, workspaces, preferences and history stay in a local database.
