l0ng-ai f0cfb47b06 refactor(ssh): rebuild Settings → SSH as a host library
The section was a field editor wearing a list's clothes: the widest
column on the page said "Select a profile to edit" and nothing else, the
global security toggles hung underneath whichever host happened to be
open, and port forwards had to be typed as `L bind:port target:port` into
a text area that taught the syntax nowhere and silently dropped any line
it couldn't parse.

The master column now leads with a title and a filter — past a dozen
hosts, finding one is the job — with Add and the `~/.ssh/config` import
demoted to icon affordances beside it. Hosts bucket by group into
collapsible sections; a collapsed header keeps showing how many of its
hosts are connected, and collapsing the group holding the selection hands
the detail pane back to Defaults rather than stranding a selected row
nobody can see. A live query force-expands every group.

`Defaults` is now a pinned row with its own page, so "every host starts
from these and can override one" is something the list's shape says. Each
per-host override names the value it currently inherits instead of
claiming a mechanism exists.

A selected host leads with its own name, address, jump chain and live
status, then Save (disabled with nothing to write) and Connect. Save
leaves the form open — with the list permanently beside it, closing back
to an empty pane read as the selection being thrown away.

Port forwards are one row of inputs per rule, and a rule that can't
connect is flagged in place rather than dropped on save.

With nothing selected the pane offers quick connect and, when
`~/.ssh/config` holds aliases tty7 hasn't linked, an offer to link them.

Why

  • Fast — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty (benchmarks)
  • Sessions persist — quit or reboot; your shells keep running, no tmux
  • Editor-grade input — completion, syntax highlighting, history search built in; zero config for zsh, bash, fish, PowerShell
  • Agent-aware — recognizes Claude Code & co. in a pane: status, notifications, session resume

Install

Native builds for each platform 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 libs bundled

What's inside

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
Coding agents per-pane agent detection (~17 CLIs): status dot, notifications, branch + diff, resume after reboot, tray icon that signals "needs your input"
SSH native russh stack: profiles with keychain secrets, SFTP panel, port forwarding, jump hosts

Details for every row: docs/features.md. Keybindings: ⌘ , opens Settings — browse and remap everything, tmux preset included (full list).
