An experimental SSH-like interactive terminal for exe.dev VMs. It connects over HTTPS rather than port 22 and supports persistent named sessions and automatic reconnection.

Run it directly from the Git repository with uv:

uvx --from 'exe-ssh @ git+https://github.com/boldsoftware/exe.dev.git#subdirectory=exe-ssh' exe-ssh VM

For example:

uvx --from 'exe-ssh @ git+https://github.com/boldsoftware/exe.dev.git#subdirectory=exe-ssh' exe-ssh willow-wind

uvx caches the Git checkout and installed environment. Add --refresh when you want it to check the default branch for a newer revision:

uvx --refresh --from 'exe-ssh @ git+https://github.com/boldsoftware/exe.dev.git#subdirectory=exe-ssh' exe-ssh willow-wind

Pass a second argument to use a named persistent session, or --list to list sessions:

uvx --from 'exe-ssh @ git+https://github.com/boldsoftware/exe.dev.git#subdirectory=exe-ssh' exe-ssh willow-wind work
uvx --from 'exe-ssh @ git+https://github.com/boldsoftware/exe.dev.git#subdirectory=exe-ssh' exe-ssh willow-wind --list

The client uses the SSH identity selected by ssh -G by default. Pass --key PATH to select one explicitly.
