v1.0.0

CloudTerm is a free SSH client that also handles SFTP, RDP, VNC, serial consoles
and port forwarding, all in one window. No account, no subscription.

Which one to download

Download	For
CloudTerm-Setup-x64.exe	Windows. Start here.
CloudTerm-x64.exe	Windows, portable
CloudTerm-arm64.dmg	macOS, Apple silicon (M1 and later)
CloudTerm-x64.dmg	macOS, Intel
CloudTerm-x86_64.AppImage	Linux

On Windows, take the installer. The portable exe has to unpack about 170MB
into a temporary folder every single time you open it, so it is noticeably slow
to start. The installer does that once and never again. Portable is there for
machines you are not allowed to install software on, which is the only reason to
prefer it.

What is in it

Terminal. SSH, telnet and serial consoles, with tabs, split panes, GPU
accelerated rendering and 36 themes.

Files. A full SFTP manager riding on the connection you already opened, with
recursive transfers, resume, conflict handling and drag and drop. Remote files
open in your own editor and upload on every save.

Remote desktops. RDP and VNC in a pane, tunnelled through SSH.

Networking. Local, remote and dynamic SOCKS5 port forwarding with live
traffic counters. Jump hosts for anything behind a bastion, SOCKS and HTTP
proxies, 2FA prompts, and automatic reconnect after a drop or a laptop waking up.

Your servers, organised. Folders, colour coded tags, snippets and instant
search across the lot. An encrypted vault for keys and passwords, and host key
verification on every connection and every hop. Bring your existing setup in from
~/.ssh/config, PuTTY, KiTTY or MobaXterm.

An optional AI panel beside the terminal. It runs on the Claude Code or Codex
already installed on your machine, signed in to your own account, so there is
nothing extra to subscribe to. It reads the session you are looking at and asks
before it changes anything. If you would rather not have it, ignore it. Nothing
else depends on it.

First launch

None of these builds are code signed yet, so your operating system will want a
word before it runs one.

• Windows: SmartScreen will warn you. Choose More info, then Run anyway.
• macOS: right click the app and choose Open, instead of double clicking it.
• Linux: chmod +x CloudTerm-x86_64.AppImage before you run it.

Known rough edges

• Nothing is signed or notarized yet, hence the warnings above.
• Windows is 64 bit only. The 32 bit build could never have run the assistant,
  whose CLI is 64 bit, and a build quietly missing a headline feature seemed
  worse than no build.

This is the first release, so there will be bugs. Issues and pull requests are
welcome, and there is a Discord linked in the README if you would rather talk
there than file something.
