All your servers,
one calm place.
Shellvane is a desktop app for SSH, SFTP and tunnels. Hosts in groups, split terminals, broadcast to many hosts, an encrypted vault, Kubernetes contexts per pane and plugins for your clouds — on Windows, macOS and Linux.

What it does
Everything you need to work on many servers, without juggling scripts, config files and terminal tabs you cannot tell apart.
Terminals you can tell apart
Tabs and splits that always show which host they are on, search, logs and recordings, ZMODEM, inline images and notifications when long commands end.
Broadcast with care
Type once on many hosts, choose the receiving panes by group or tag, and get a confirmation before risky commands on production.
Vault and keys
Passwords, passphrases and keys encrypted on your computer, unlocked with Touch ID or Windows Hello, hardware keys (PKCS#11), certificates and agent forwarding with confirmation.
SFTP and tunnels
Two independent file panes, copy between servers, edit locally, compare folders; local, remote and SOCKS tunnels that start with one click.
Environments
Cloud login, jump host, tunnels and kubectl contexts started in order with one click — the end of connect scripts.
Plugins
Hosts from AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Kubernetes, Ansible, Terraform, Proxmox, NetBox; logins from Vault, Teleport, Boundary; Docker and systemd panels; write your own in any language.
Local first
Everything is stored on your computer. Sync through a folder, WebDAV, Git or S3, end-to-end encrypted, if you want it.
Teams, without a server
Share logins, host groups, environments and snippets with your team, end-to-end encrypted on the storage you already have. Member limit, access end dates and a signed activity log for admins.
Broadcast
Type once. Run everywhere you mean to.
Send the same keystrokes to many hosts, chosen by group or tag. Production panes stand out, and risky commands ask before they go.
- Pick panes by group, tag or hand
- Confirmation for rm, reboot and friends
- Every pane shows where it is connected
Environments
One click instead of five terminals.
Cloud login, jump host, tunnels and Kubernetes context start in order and stop together. The end of connect scripts.
- AWS SSO, gcloud, Azure, Vault, Teleport
- Tunnels that come back after sleep
- kubectl context per pane
Vault
Secrets that stay yours.
Passwords, passphrases and keys are encrypted on your computer and unlocked with Touch ID or Windows Hello. Sync is end-to-end encrypted, if you want it at all.
- Hardware keys and certificates
- Agent forwarding with confirmation
- Local first: no account, no cloud
Teams
Share access, not passwords in chat.
Logins, host groups, environments, snippets and rules travel to every member, end-to-end encrypted in a file on storage your team already shares: a synced folder, WebDAV, Git or S3. There is no Shellvane server to trust or pay for.
- Members verified by key fingerprint
- Removing someone rotates the team key
- Member limit, access end dates and a signed activity log
Teams are part of the official app downloaded from this site, free like everything else; the community edition built from the open-source code does not include them.
