Release Notes

Added

  • Background port forwarding (Ctrl-f on a host): a popup to start a Local (-L),
    Remote (-R) or Dynamic (-D SOCKS) SSH tunnel, reusing the host's auth exactly as
    connect does (keys / agent / ProxyJump / stored password, plus site defaults). The forward runs
    as a detached background process that keeps running after you quit sshelf, and a bind/auth
    failure (port in use, privileged port, server refused) is reported in the popup. A new
    forwards manager (F4) lists every active forward across hosts with its pid and age and
    stops any (d/ky); the list refreshes live and is reconciled against the running
    processes on each launch, so it only ever shows forwards that are still actually running.
    Tracked in forwards.json. No new dependencies.
