sshs is a terminal user interface (TUI) for SSH that reads ~/.ssh/config to list and connect to configured hosts. It is written in Rust and provides fast fuzzy search over SSH hosts directly in the terminal.

Use cases

• quickly search and connect to SSH hosts from my ssh config
• interactive terminal menu for managing SSH connections
• fuzzy-find servers defined in ~/.ssh/config
• replace manual ssh command typing with a TUI picker
• browse and connect to remote servers from the command line

When to choose

• you have many hosts in your SSH config and want fast fuzzy search
• you want a lightweight, fast Rust TUI instead of shell scripts or aliases
• you want a tool packaged across Homebrew, Chocolatey, pacman, apk, and Nix

When to avoid

• you need full remote session management, file transfer, or multiplexing beyond launching ssh
• you don't use ~/.ssh/config or need a GUI-based SSH client
• you need features like SFTP, port forwarding UI, or credential management
