Last commit hedged on whether the missing russh fixes matter to a client,
because the release notes describe them as a client crashing its own session.
Matching the whole lockfile against the GitHub advisory database settles it —
the advisory titles say plainly what the release notes did not:
GHSA-5xvq-cp9x-6p6r "Pre-auth remote panic via all-zero Curve25519 peer
public value (encode_mpint OOB)"
GHSA-g9hv-x236-4qp3 "client wrong-length X25519 clone_from_slice panic
(pre-auth DoS)"
tty7 is the client, the peer is whatever server a profile dials, and this
lands before authentication — so anything sitting in front of that server
reaches it too. Both are patched in 0.62.4; this rev is from 2026-07-14 and
predates it.
The other three are named too, with the two server-side ones marked as such
since tty7 runs no SSH server.
Still documentation only, for the reason the previous commit gives: moving the
SSH layer wants an SSH connection to test against, and connecting needs the GUI
connection manager, which this environment cannot drive. The fix is unchanged —
rebase the fork onto v0.62.6+, and drop the patch once #738 ships in a release.
2937 tests pass.
tty7
A terminal workbench: persistent sessions, remote work, agents.
Pure Rust · GPU rendering on Zed's gpui · VT core from Alacritty

Why
- Performance — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty (benchmarks)
- Persistent sessions — quit or reboot; your shells and supported agent sessions keep running, no tmux
- Editor-grade input — suggestions, completion, highlighting, history search
- Remote development — files, repos, panes, and git data stay on the remote machine
- Native SSH — profiles, SFTP, port forwarding, and jump hosts
- Agent-aware — Claude Code, Codex & co.: status, notifications, git context
- CLI + Skills — agents create panes, run commands, and inspect output
