  1. Zach Krall: SSH-based personal site

    Zach Krall's personal site is accessed via SSH rather than a browser — a creative terminal experience at ssh hi.zachkrall.com. A deliberate choice to make the portfolio interactive in the terminal rather than the web.

  2. sdump: SSH-native HTTP request bin for webhook debugging

    sdump is an SSH-native HTTP request bin for debugging webhooks — spin up a URL, connect via SSH to inspect incoming requests in your terminal, no browser required. Self-hostable with a public instance available.

  3. pbproxy: Remote Clipboard Over SSH

    pbproxy is a small tool that lets you use your local clipboard over SSH connections — pipe text into it from a remote server and it appears in your local clipboard. Solves the common frustration of needing to copy output from a remote machine.

  4. Signing Git Commits with Your SSH Key

    A walkthrough of using your existing SSH key to sign Git commits instead of a GPG key — a feature added in Git 2.34. Signing git commits is good practice for supply chain security, and SSH keys are already part of most developers' daily workflow, making this a low-friction upgrade over GPG.

  5. Warpgate: Smart SSH Bastion

    Warpgate is an open-source SSH bastion server written in Rust — sits in front of your SSH targets, handles authentication centrally, and records sessions. Unlike traditional bastion hosts, it works with any standard SSH client without requiring a custom client or VPN.

  6. SSH Certificates: Why You're Doing SSH Wrong

    Smallstep's case for SSH certificates over authorized_keys — short-lived certificates issued by a CA eliminate the credential sprawl that makes SSH key management a compliance nightmare. The practical alternative to key-based SSH at scale.

  7. Mosh: The Mobile Shell

    Mosh (mobile shell) is a UDP-based replacement for SSH that maintains connections across network changes, provides instant local echo even on high-latency links, and never drops a session when you close your laptop. The right tool for anyone working over unreliable or mobile connections.
