All interactive tools run entirely in your browser. Your data never leaves your device.

How It Works

Build SSH config file blocks by adding host entries with aliases, hostnames, users, ports, identity files, and advanced options like ProxyJump, ForwardAgent, and Compression. Copy the generated config directly into your ~/.ssh/config file.

Features

  • Host entries: define aliases mapping to real hostnames with user and port
  • Key authentication: specify IdentityFile paths for each host
  • Proxy jump: configure bastion/jump host connections via ProxyJump
  • Boolean options: ForwardAgent, Compression, AddKeysToAgent toggles
  • Validation: real-time validation of port ranges, required fields, and option values
  • Multiple entries: add as many host blocks as needed
  • 5 examples: basic server, jump host, GitHub SSH, multi-environment, wildcard config
  • Private: runs entirely in the browser — your data never leaves your machine

Use Cases

  • Setting up SSH config for new servers
  • Configuring bastion/jump host access patterns
  • Managing SSH keys across multiple environments
  • Quick reference for SSH config syntax and options
