Modern SSH Client
for Linux

The AI-native SSH and SFTP client for Linux. Manage servers, encrypt credentials, and automate commands — on Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, and Arch.

Run this command in your terminal to install Rumus:

curl -f https://www.rumus.ai/install.sh | sh

Auto-detects .deb / .rpm / AppImage. · v0.1.18

Optimization

Built for Linux, every distro.

Rumus ships native packages for the distros and architectures real Linux users actually run — not a one-size-fits-all AppImage as an afterthought.

Universal Packages

.deb, .rpm, AUR, and AppImage. Install with your package manager — no manual extraction.

Wide Distro Support

Ubuntu 22.04+, Debian 11+, Fedora 35+, and Arch. Rolling-release friendly.

Wayland & X11

Runs natively on both display servers. GNOME, KDE, Hyprland, and tiling WMs all supported.

ARM64 Builds

First-class ARM64 binaries for Raspberry Pi, AWS Graviton, and Ampere workstations.

Infrastructure

Every server, one place.

Connect, organize, and manage all your servers without switching tools.

End-to-End Encryption

End-to-end encrypted. Only you can read your data. Learn more

SSH Host Management

Organize servers into groups. Connect with one click via password, SSH key, or jump host chains.

Built-in SFTP

Drag-and-drop file transfer. Upload, download, and manage remote files without leaving the terminal.

Themes & Appearance

18 built-in color schemes, 12 accent colors, adjustable transparency. Make it yours.

GPU Accelerated

Hardware-accelerated rendering. Smooth scrolling and instant response, even with heavy output.

Jump Host Chains

Chain through multiple bastion servers. Reach any host, no matter how deep the network.

Proxy Support

HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 proxies with authentication. Connect from any network.

Comparison

Why switch from GNOME Terminal?

GNOME Terminal, Konsole, and friends are great local shells. They were never designed to be SSH workstations for managing dozens of servers.

Intelligence

AI that works
in your terminal.

Not a chatbot. An agent that understands your context, plans multi-step tasks, and executes with your approval.

Sub Agents

Break large tasks into smaller ones and run them in parallel for faster results.

Rules

Define guardrails and instructions so the agent works the way you expect, every time.

Skills

Package reusable workflows as skills. Trigger them by name to automate repetitive tasks.

MCP

Plug in any MCP-compatible server to give the agent access to your own tools and APIs.

Built-in Search

Look up documentation, error messages, or solutions on the web without leaving your terminal.

Frontier Models

Access to the latest OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google models — or run locally with Ollama.

Workspace

Your workspace. Your layout.

Terminals, monitors, and docs — arranged the way you think, not the way your tools force you to.

Infinite canvas workspace with terminals, monitors, and markdown cards

Custom Layouts

Arrange cards freely on an infinite canvas.

Send to All Terminals

One command, every server.

Real-time Monitoring

CPU, memory, disk, GPU — live on your canvas.
