TuxShell 1.3.0

TuxShell 1.3.0: 1Password

Sign in to your servers with passwords that stay in 1Password.

What's new

1Password references

• Give a host a 1Password reference such as op://Infra/db-01/password (in 1Password: Copy
  Secret Reference on the field). When the server asks for the password, TuxShell gets it from
  1Password, which may ask you to approve.
• The password is never stored, logged or shown, and references work even with Allow saving
  passwords turned off.
• Check in the host form confirms a reference works.
• If 1Password can't give the password, or the server refuses it, the password box tells you why.
• Remote desktops use the reference in their own window.
• Preferences → Security shows whether the 1Password CLI is installed, with setup steps.

1Password SSH agent

• Use the 1Password SSH agent (Preferences → Security, off by default) lets TuxShell's ssh use
  the SSH keys kept in 1Password, also through jump hosts. Hosts whose ~/.ssh/config picks an
  agent keep using it.

Home

• Hide the "Found hosts in ~/.ssh/config" reminder with its ×. It comes back only when new
  hosts appear; hidden hosts are still listed in Import.

Fixed

• Leftover files from TuxShell runs that didn't close cleanly are now removed at startup.

Set up 1Password

1. Install the 1Password app and the
   1Password CLI.
2. In the 1Password app, turn on Settings → Developer → Integrate with 1Password CLI.
3. Paste a reference into a host's Password reference and press Check.
