    PuTTY

    PuTTY

    PuTTY

    PuTTY is a free implementation of SSH and Telnet for Windows and Unix platforms, along with an xterm terminal emulator. PuTTY is a client program for the SSH, Telnet, Rlogin, and SUPDUP network protocols. These protocols are all used to run a remote session on a computer, over a network. PuTTY implements the client end of that session, the end at which the session is displayed, rather than the end at which it runs. In really simple terms, you run PuTTY on a Windows machine, and tell it to connect to (for example) a Unix machine. PuTTY opens a window. Then, anything you type into that window is sent straight to the Unix machine, and everything the Unix machine sends back is displayed in the window. So you can work on the Unix machine as if you were sitting at its console, while actually sitting somewhere else. All of PuTTY's settings can be saved in named session profiles. You can also change the default settings that are used for new sessions.

    Terminals

    Terminals

    TECHNLG

    For developers and system administrators, it’s a necessity to frequently log on to Linux servers from a Windows computer. Unlike Linux OS, Windows does not have a native ssh client. Putty is the most used freeware ssh client for Windows OS. It supports telnet and ssh protocols. One constraint with Putty is that it does not have support for tabbed windows. Putty Connection manager is developed to solve this problem but it has got a lot of issues in using the utility. Terminals supports not just telnet and ssh but also RDP, VNC, and RAS connections. You can save the login id and password of the remote servers and with a single click, you can connect to the server. You can create a group of servers and with a single click, you can open connections to all the servers added to the group. You can save multiple user credentials for the same server and can select the user name while connecting to the server.

    CLIAnywhere

    CLIAnywhere

    CLIAnywhere

    CLIAnywhere is a remote terminal application for developers, system administrators, and other users who need a shell on their own Windows, macOS, or Linux computer from an iOS or Android device or a web browser. Its host daemon keeps terminal sessions running on the computer, so users can disconnect and reconnect or switch between desktop and mobile clients without losing the session. An account can link multiple PCs and terminals. CLIAnywhere also provides a file browser with downloads and access to localhost or private LAN web applications on the host. Connections use peer-to-peer networking when possible, with an encrypted relay fallback; no public IP address or port forwarding is required. The host daemon is available under the Business Source License 1.1; personal and internal use is free, while commercial resale or hosting requires a separate license. A free mobile tier is ad-supported; optional Plus ($2.99) and Pro ($9.99) subscriptions are ad-free.

    Atomic Agent

    Atomic Agent

    Atomic Agent is an open-source, local-first AI agent that runs on your own machine from the terminal.

You choose the model, you own the data, you stay in control. No cloud lock-in. Install with a single command on macOS, Linux, or Windows. Built for developers and power users who want a capable autonomous agent without shipping their work to someone else's cloud.

    SuperBased

    SuperBased

    SuperBased

    SuperBased is a local-first control plane for AI coding agents that lets developers see, control, and right-size agent activity from one binary running on their own machine. It reads native session data from 40 coding tools without requiring a proxy, SDK rewrite, or special configuration, supporting agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, Kilo Code, Qwen Code, Aider, Devin, and others. The dashboard tracks provider-reported token usage, cache reads and writes, costs, sessions, and projected next-message spend across tools that normally keep their data separate. Developers can also launch more than 20 CLI agents as terminal sessions, monitor several repositories from one screen, attach to a running agent, take over the keyboard, and hand control back when needed. Model routing helps teams match tasks to appropriate models, while egress gates can hold commands before execution so users can stop or redirect costly or risky actions.

    GNOME Terminal
    Terminal is a terminal emulator application for accessing a UNIX shell environment which can be used to run programs available on your system. Terminal supports escape sequences that control cursor position and colors. A terminal is a text input point in a computer that is also called the Command Line Interface (CLI). IBM 3270, VT100 and many others are hardware terminals that are no longer produced as physical devices. To emulate these terminals, there are terminal emulators. Any input entered in the Terminal to be executed is referred to as a command. You can run both command line and graphical user interface (GUI) programs from the terminal. If you have a program that ends abruptly without any warning or error, you may want to run it in Terminal. This will allow the program to output any error or debugging messages to the Terminal window. This information can be helpful when filing a bug report.

    WindowManager
    WindowManager helps you to improve your workflow by remembering and restoring the position and size of your programs and windows. Many programs don't remember their position and size between sessions and even Windows Explorer does not restore Windows to their last position under Windows 7 or higher. This is where WindowManager steps in and makes sure your windows are placed exactly where you want them every time you open them. WindowManager even allows you to lock the position and size of any window, so that it will always open at the same spot no matter where you move it. The window handling is fully customizable and you can set up special rules for your favorite or most frequently used windows. You can also make WindowManager send keystrokes or mouse clicks to a program when its window is opened, run additional programs, and other advanced actions. With WindowManager, you can also minimize most windows in the system tray.
