Unofficial SSH preview build of Terax from Stephen Stack's fork. Not affiliated
with, endorsed by, or supported by Crynta. Do not report problems from this build
to the upstream Terax project.

Build provenance

What this is

  • Application: Terax SSH Preview
  • Identifier: io.github.stephenstack.terax.sshpreview
  • Version: 0.8.6-ssh.2
  • Platform: Windows x64, NSIS installer, per-user install (no admin required)
  • Auto-update: disabled. This build never checks for or installs updates.
  • Code signing: none. Windows SmartScreen warns on first run.

Installs alongside a stable Terax rather than replacing it: separate identifier,
install directory, Start Menu entry, application data and OS keychain namespace.

Credentials are not shared with stable Terax

This build stores secrets under the keychain service terax-ssh-preview; a
stable Terax uses terax-ai. Nothing is imported. You must enter API keys
again here, and keys you enter here are invisible to a stable install. SSH
passwords and key passphrases are never stored by either build; they are
prompted for on every connection.

Verify the download before running it

PowerShell:

Get-FileHash .\Terax-SSH-Preview_0.8.6-ssh.2_x64-setup.exe -Algorithm SHA256

Expected SHA256:

Testing steps

  1. Install Terax SSH Preview.
  2. Open the remote SSH connection screen (the Remotes panel in the activity bar).
  3. Connect only to a non-production test host. Never point this build at
    production infrastructure.
  4. Open a remote terminal against that host.
  5. Confirm command execution (hostname, whoami), then disconnect and
    reconnect, and confirm the session comes back cleanly.
  6. Report preview-specific problems in stephenstack/terax-ai, not upstream:
    https://github.com/stephenstack/terax-ai/issues

Include the version above, your Windows version, the remote server OS and SSH
version, and the authentication method you used.

docs/SSH_PREVIEW.md in this repository has the fuller guide: what is
experimental, the SmartScreen warning, known limitations and the security
warning. The steps above are the minimum and do not depend on it.
