Teleconsole is a Go-based command line tool for sharing a UNIX terminal session with others and forwarding local TCP ports over SSH, aimed at pair programming and remote collaboration. Its hosted relay service has been shut down by Gravitational (now Teleport), leaving the code available but the hosted workflow non-functional.

Use cases

  • share my terminal with a teammate for pair programming
  • let a friend debug on my machine over ssh
  • forward a local tcp port to a remote collaborator
  • give temporary terminal access without opening firewall ports
  • collaborate on a server session from the command line

When to choose

  • you want to self-host or fork a simple terminal-sharing tool
  • you need a lightweight Go codebase to study for ssh tunneling
  • you already run your own relay infrastructure

When to avoid

  • you need a working hosted service - it has been shut down
  • you want actively maintained software - last release was 2021
  • you need production-grade remote access - use Teleport or plain SSH instead
