Wharf manages your SSH hosts, keys and sessions from a fast, keyboard-driven
TUI. It is local-first: everything works with no account, backed by a local
encrypted vault. Signing in adds end-to-end encrypted cross-machine sync and
shared team projects, under a zero-knowledge model where the server only ever
holds ciphertext.
