l0ng-ai 9509ff549c test(ssh): match a known_hosts line that ssh-keygen actually produced
The hashed-host test builds its line with the same `hmac_sha1` it then
checks, so it holds whether or not that agrees with anyone else. The
digest is not the gap -- `sha1_matches_known_vectors` and
`hmac_sha1_matches_rfc2202_vector` pin it against outside vectors, and
breaking one SHA-1 constant fails all three tests, which is how I checked.

The gap is everything wrapped around the digest: base64 in the order this
file reads it, `|1|` splitting where OpenSSH puts the separator, and
`host_token` spelling a non-default port the way ssh-keygen does --
`[example.com]:2222`, brackets and all. Nothing pinned that, and getting
it wrong makes every hashed entry for a non-22 host read as a host never
seen before. Not a wrong trust, but a user with `HashKnownHosts` on would
meet the prompt at every connection.

So both prefixes here came out of a real `ssh-keygen -H` run and are
matched end to end. They pair with this file's own key because the digest
covers the host token alone.

Checked while reading the surrounding logic, which needed nothing: revoked
entries are consulted first and outrank everything, `@cert-authority` lines
are skipped where they would name the wrong key, a same-algorithm
mismatch outranks a different-algorithm one, and `!negation` short-circuits
the whole comma-separated list the way OpenSSH does.

tty7 with a tab sidebar of agent sessions across several repos, running Claude Code

Why

  • Performance — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty (benchmarks)
  • Persistent sessions — quit the app and your shells keep running; after a reboot the layout comes back and supported agent conversations resume, 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

Install

Native builds for macOS, Windows, and Linux on Releases:

macOS …-macos-arm64.dmg · …-x86_64.dmg drag into Applications
Windows …-setup.exe · portable ….zip
Linux …-x86_64.AppImage chmod +x and run — X11/Wayland libraries bundled

What's inside

Editor-grade input ghost suggestions from history · explained tab completion · syntax highlighting · multi-line editing · click places the caret · ⌃ R fuzzy history
Window tabs & splits · ⌘ P palette · ⌘ F scrollback search · nine themes · IME
Agent-aware per-pane detection (18 CLIs): status dot · notifications · branch + diff · resume after reboot · tray icon when input is needed
Remote workspaces remote files, repos, changes, diffs, worktrees, tabs, and panes · reconnect from any client and continue where you left off
CLI + Skills bundled tty7 CLI · agent skill · pane/workspace control · real PTY commands · output, process, port, and agent status
SSH native russh stack: profiles with keychain secrets · SFTP panel · port forwarding · jump hosts · one-time, unprivileged tty7-server install

Full documentation lives in docs/keyboard shortcuts · config.json · CLI reference. The agent-facing CLI interface is also documented in skills/tty7/SKILL.md.
