SSH Client for Linux

Termio is a local-first SSH client for Linux with system keyring integration, split-pane workspaces, and Git-based sharing. Distributed as an AppImage that works across distributions.

System Keyring Integration

Store SSH credentials via the Secret Service API and libsecret instead of plain-text files or cloud vaults.

AppImage Distribution

A single portable file that runs on Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, and other distributions without package manager setup.

Works Across Distros

Consistent experience regardless of desktop environment. Runs on X11 and Wayland.

Why Linux users need more than a terminal emulator

Most Linux terminal emulators handle local shells well, but they leave SSH management to config files and command-line flags. When you manage dozens of hosts across staging, production, and development, that scattered approach slows you down.

Termio adds workspace organization, credential storage through the system keyring, and per-connection scripts on top of a capable terminal. It keeps everything local and shareable through Git.

What to look for in a Linux SSH client

  • System keyring integration for credential storage
  • Workspace organization for hosts and environments
  • Split panes for local and remote sessions
  • Git-based sharing instead of proprietary cloud sync
  • Distro-agnostic distribution (AppImage, deb, etc.)

Linux SSH workflow, organized

Split panes for real work

Open SSH sessions, local shells, and log streams side by side. No need to juggle separate terminal windows or tmux sessions.

Share setup with Git

Keep workspace structure in plain files and share it through Git, while each user keeps credentials in their own keyring.
