OliveTin is a lightweight, self-hosted web application written in Go that exposes predefined shell commands as clickable buttons in a simple web interface. It is configured via YAML, supports argument forms, ACL-based access control, execution logging, and runs on tiny ARM devices up to full servers.

Use cases

  • give my family a web button to restart plex
  • let junior admins run a backup script with dropdown arguments
  • run long server commands from my phone
  • expose wake-on-lan on a wall tablet
  • temporarily enable SSH access with a timeout
  • give AI agents a limited set of approved shell actions
  • turn complex docker commands into one-click buttons

When to choose

  • you want a dead-simple YAML-configured UI for predefined commands
  • you need safe, restricted command access for non-technical users
  • you want a lightweight self-hosted tool that runs on ARM/RISC devices
  • you need audit logs of who ran what command

When to avoid

  • you need a full-featured admin panel or general-purpose remote shell
  • you need arbitrary ad-hoc command execution rather than predefined actions
  • you require enterprise-grade security hardening beyond ACLs and basic auth options
