What is it?

Hatoba is a desktop SSH client that keeps hosts, keys, and terminal sessions in one app and syncs them between devices. Each terminal has an AI assistant that can read the screen, run commands, and edit files on the host, with approval controls over what it may do. It uses your own OpenAI-compatible or Anthropic API key and supports skills and MCP servers.

Sync is optional and runs on a Cloudflare Worker and D1 database deployed to your own account, so there is no Hatoba server holding your data. Everything is encrypted on the device with Argon2id-derived keys and AES-256-GCM before it is stored or synced, so the Worker and database only ever hold ciphertext.

Beyond the terminal, Hatoba includes an SFTP file panel, port forwarding, resource usage monitoring over SSH, and support for passwords, Ed25519, ECDSA, and RSA keys. It is built with Tauri 2 and is Windows-first, with Linux packages and an experimental macOS build.

  • AI features need your own OpenAI-compatible or Anthropic API key.
  • Optional sync requires deploying a Worker and D1 database to your own Cloudflare account.
