About

A full interactive terminal over WebSocket, backed by a real PTY process — not a simulation. It opens a login shell as the Linux user you're signed in as, so every command runs with exactly that user's real permissions, in their real home directory.

What it does

  • A real PTY process per session, not an emulated command runner.
  • Opens a login shell as the signed-in Linux user (runuser, or sudo runuser if the server itself isn't running as root).
  • Full ANSI/colour output and window resizing, which resizes the PTY to match.
  • Runs with that user's actual permissions — nothing is sandboxed or restricted beyond what Linux itself enforces.
