Why this would be needed

Start inside the user's day · Public facts + observable behavior · 2026-09-01

Use case

System administrators need to manage Linux servers over SSH.

Currently, admins use terminals, PuTTY, or commercial tools like Termius.

Existing SSH tools are mostly command-line with a steep learning curve; graphical tools are lacking.
