GETTING STARTED

Add your first host

A host is a server you connect to: a name, an address, a port, a user, and a credential.

Fields

Field Example Where it is stored
Label api-prod-01 server, plain text
Hostname 10.0.4.12 server, plain text
Port 22 server, plain text
User deploy encrypted on your device
Key or password ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 encrypted on your device

Label, hostname and port are visible to the server so the audit log and the admin panel can show which host someone used. The credential and the user name never leave your device unencrypted.

Groups and tags

Put hosts in groups (production, staging) and add tags (ubuntu 24.04, postgres). In a team, a whole group can be shared with one click.
