# Dosh

Dosh is an encrypted remote terminal for fast reconnecting shells.

It runs a `dosh-server` on a Unix-like host and a `dosh` client on macOS,
Linux, or Windows. Setup can use SSH, then Dosh connects over encrypted UDP,
keeps sessions alive across disconnects, supports terminal apps, and can carry
TCP forwarding, file copy, and VS Code Remote-SSH streams.

## Support

- Client: macOS, Linux, Windows
- Server: Linux and other Unix-like systems with PTYs
- Default UDP port: `50000`
- Windows: client only

Dosh is meant to replace Mosh and everyday interactive SSH sessions. It does
not currently include SFTP, X11 forwarding, or a Windows server.

## Install

Unix/macOS server and client:

```sh
curl -fsSL https://git.palav.dev/Palav/dosh/raw/branch/main/install.sh | sh -s -- both --repo https://git.palav.dev/Palav/dosh.git --port 50000
```

Unix/macOS client only:

```sh
curl -fsSL https://git.palav.dev/Palav/dosh/raw/branch/main/install.sh | sh -s -- client --repo https://git.palav.dev/Palav/dosh.git
```

Windows client:

```powershell
irm https://git.palav.dev/Palav/dosh/raw/branch/main/install.ps1 | iex
```

## Use

```sh
dosh setup HOST
dosh HOST
dosh HOST COMMAND
dosh update
```

Useful commands:

```sh
dosh exec HOST COMMAND
dosh cp SRC DST
dosh ls host:path
dosh cat host:path
dosh mkdir host:path
dosh rm [-r] host:path
dosh forward HOST -L 8080:127.0.0.1:80
dosh forward HOST -D 1080
dosh forward HOST -R 2222:127.0.0.1:22
dosh status HOST
dosh doctor HOST
dosh recover HOST
dosh restart HOST
```

Agent forwarding is opt-in with `-A` and must also be enabled on the server.
File copy must be enabled by the server config.

## VS Code

Dosh can carry VS Code Remote-SSH through its transport:

```sh
dosh vscode setup HOST
dosh vscode HOST /remote/path
```

This creates a managed SSH config entry using `ProxyCommand dosh proxy-stdio`.
VS Code still uses Remote-SSH and its normal remote server; Dosh carries the
SSH byte stream.

## Config

```text
~/.config/dosh/client.toml
~/.config/dosh/hosts.toml
~/.config/dosh/server.toml
```

Common client settings:

```toml
default_session = "new"
predict = true
cache_attach_tickets = true
disconnect_status = true
```

## Rust Library

Dosh exposes a Rust transport for encrypted, reconnecting application streams.
Use `dosh::client::DoshClient` and `dosh::server::DoshServer` for the normal
native-auth path. Use `dosh::transport::DoshTransport` only when you already
own session setup and authentication.
