    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.

    Reasonix

    Reasonix

    Reasonix

    Reasonix is an open source coding agent designed for long autonomous sessions that remain readable, auditable, and reversible. One local engine powers four interfaces: terminal, desktop app, browser, and ACP-compatible editors, with sessions, permissions, skills, and MCP servers shared across them. Plan mode holds every write until the proposed steps are reviewed and approved, while reads, writes, and shell commands are separately gated and constrained by a workspace sandbox. Each turn creates a checkpoint outside Git, allowing users to rewind a long run without affecting commit history. MCP support over stdio, SSE, and streamable HTTP merges external tools into one registry, while Markdown skills and isolated subagents extend the agent without requiring a fork. Reasonix maps a codebase once and keeps that map throughout the session, letting users queue tasks, review diffs, and resume work without losing context.

In the future, we anticipate the community will come up with innovative additions to enhance what could be the simplest, most powerful, and well-tested interface for productivity. Extensions are available on npm. All command keys can be changed. Extensions are universal Node.js modules loaded by both Electron and the renderer process. Instead of exposing a custom API method or parameter for every possible customization point, we allow you to intercept and compose every bit of functionality!

    Bastillion

    Bastillion

    Bastillion

    Bastillion is a web-based SSH console that centrally manages administrative access to systems. Web-based administration is combined with the management and distribution of users' public SSH keys. Key management and administration are based on profiles assigned to defined users. Administrators can log in using two-factor authentication with Authy or Google Authenticator. From there they can manage their public SSH keys or connect to their systems through a web shell. Commands can be shared across shells to make patching easier and eliminate redundant command execution. Bastillion layers TLS/SSL on top of SSH and acts as a bastion host for administration. Protocols are stacked (TLS/SSL + SSH) so infrastructure cannot be exposed through tunneling/port forwarding. Also, SSH key management is enabled by default to prevent unmanaged public keys and enforce best practices. Bastillion is available for free use under the Prosperity Public License.

Developers can run commands, test code, review outputs, and coordinate multiple agents across projects and machines simultaneously, all within the same visual workspace. It is built to support native CLI-based agents and integrates directly with development tools, enabling real-time interaction with AI agents while maintaining full visibility into processes like code execution, testing, and deployment.
