Sheil is an open-source, cross-platform tool for managing remote machines and devices with SSH, SFTP, port forwarding, and a local AI command assistant. Built with security and privacy in mind.
I've spent a lot of time jumping between SSH clients, terminals, SFTP tools, port forwarding, and increasingly AI assistants.
I wanted one place for remote/device management, but I also didn't like the idea of blindly sending infrastructure context and commands to a cloud AI provider just to get command suggestions.
So I started building Sheil around a simple idea:
Remote management should be powerful, and AI assistance should be private by default.
Sheil is still very early, so I'm launching it now specifically to get feedback from people who work with servers, DevOps, homelabs, and remote devices.
Would love to hear what you'd want Sheil to do next.
