OliTerm Help

OliTerm is a native macOS terminal built around SSH: named host favorites, a snippet library, a file browser that follows your session, an AI command assistant, and credential fill — all in native tabbed windows.

Connections run the system ssh and scp, so your ~/.ssh/config, keys, ssh‑agent, and ProxyJump setup work exactly as they do in any other terminal.

• Getting started Windows, tabs, quitting, and keeping OliTerm up to date
• The sidebar The Hosts and Snippets libraries, filtering, host groups, and the Recent group
• Hosts — SSH favorites Save connections, sort them into groups, and open them in a tab with a double-click
• Snippets Store commands and type them into the terminal — never run automatically
• Terminal sessions Local and SSH sessions, the environment they get, and session end
• The file browser Browse local and remote files beside the terminal, transfer, and edit
• Uploads & shell integration Drag & drop uploads and how OliTerm follows the remote directory
• Filling credentials OliTerm’s keychain list, the system AutoFill picker, and 1Password
• The AI assistant Describe what you want; review the suggested command before running it
• Agent mode Let the assistant carry out tasks on the host, approving each command
• Host info at a glance OS, updates, uptime, disk, memory, CPU, and network in a popover
• Automation with URLs Open connections from scripts and other apps with oliterm:// and ssh:// links
• Keyboard shortcuts Every shortcut in one table
