About:
Sshs is a graphical command-line interface tool designed to simplify SSH connection management. It provides an interactive, searchable list of hosts configured in your SSH config file, allowing for quick selection and connection. This eliminates the need to remember complex hostnames or manually type SSH commands, streamlining the workflow for developers and system administrators.

Key Features:

Interactive fuzzy-search interface for SSH hosts
Reads and utilizes existing ~/.ssh/config files
Terminal-based TUI for fast navigation
Simplifies connecting to multiple servers

Use Cases:

Managing connections to dozens of development or staging servers
Quickly accessing remote infrastructure without typing full hostnames
Organizing SSH aliases for easier discovery

Alternatives:

ssh-copy-id – Sshs manages connections, while ssh-copy-id is specifically for copying SSH keys to remote servers.
ssh-menu – Sshs is a modern Rust-based TUI, whereas ssh-menu is an older shell script implementation.
