Magtomo Shell, a Windows desktop SSH terminal with a built-in AI sidebar — log in to Linux servers and get AI-assisted command help, all in one window. Very convinient for using Vibe Coding including Kimi Code, Codex and Claude Code etc.
What it is
Magtomo-Shell is a desktop SSH client designed for people who work on Linux servers and want AI assistance without leaving their terminal. Instead of switching between a terminal, a browser-based AI chat, and command buffer sheets, everything lives in a single, focused window.
Key features
- Full SSH terminal — multiple tabbed sessions, password and private-key login, saved connection profiles, fast WebGL-rendered terminal.
- Built-in AI sidebar — select content inside the shell and chat with any OpenAI-compatible API (DeepSeek, Moonshot/Kimi, or your own endpoint) in one click. Use your own API key. Chat content command blocks can be send to terminal in one click.
- Prompt editor with Markdown — a proper editor for composing long prompts, with outline view, source mode, and Ctrl+Enter to send straight into the terminal.
- Prompt templates — a built-in library of reusable prompt snippets you can insert into the editor with one click.
- Offline Linux command knowledge base — the full tldr-pages corpus (6,700+ commands) ships with the app; look up command usage with zero network access.
- Configurable right-click — classic selection popup menu by default, or switch to the shell-style “right-click to paste”, independently for the terminal and the
prompt editor. - Bilingual UI — English and Chinese.
- Privacy-respecting updates —the app only reads a version manifest to notify you of new releases; installing is always done manually by you from this page — packages are never downloaded automatically.
