## What it is
OxideTerm is an open-source, local-first desktop workspace for remote server operations, combining SSH/Mosh/Telnet/Serial terminals, SFTP, RDP/VNC remote desktop, port forwarding, and a lightweight remote IDE in one native GPUI-rendered app. It includes an AI assistant (OxideSens) with bring-your-own-key access to live sessions and files, pure-Rust SSH via russh, and no Electron, telemetry, or subscription.

## Use cases
- manage ssh connections and sftp transfers in one app
- ai assistant that can see my terminal sessions and server files
- lightweight alternative to electron-based ssh clients
- edit remote files over sftp with syntax highlighting
- forward ports and browse remote desktops from a single workspace
- keep ssh sessions alive through network drops
- run commands across multiple servers at once

## When to choose
- you want a native, GPU-rendered terminal/SSH workspace without Electron or bundled WebViews
- you need terminals, SFTP, port forwarding, and remote desktop unified per host
- you want an AI assistant over your own API key with local-first data control
- you prefer pure-Rust SSH with no OpenSSL/C dependencies and no telemetry

## When to avoid
- you need a scriptable headless SSH CLI for automation pipelines
- you require features beyond its scope like full IDE refactoring or team session sharing
- you need a permissively licensed tool (GPL-3.0)
- you depend on X11 forwarding or legacy protocols not listed
