# Releases Every Termy build, newest first. Native macOS, signed and notarized. ## [v1.7.9](https://termyapp.com/releases/1.7.9) LatestSep 3, 2026[.dmg](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.7.9.dmg) ### One Source of Truth - **Link a Termy host to an OpenSSH Host alias.** Choose SSH Config as the route, enter the alias, and preview the resolved destination before saving. - **Connection settings stay current.** Termy re-reads HostName, User, Port, Include, and ProxyJump before every new connection and reconnect. - **Imported hosts can remain linked.** The SSH config importer can keep hosts connected to the default config instead of creating a one-time snapshot. ### ProxyJump & Safety - **Multi-hop and nested ProxyJump routes are supported.** Saved Termy credentials are reused for matching jump hosts, while other hops can use the target host's configured authentication. - **Authentication remains under your control.** Termy continues to use its saved authentication or your SSH agent and never opens private keys merely because they appear as IdentityFile entries. - **Unsafe or unsupported routes fail clearly.** Invalid ports, malformed or cyclic jump chains, and ProxyCommand routes are rejected instead of being silently bypassed. Match and ProxyCommand commands are never executed. ## [v1.7.8](https://termyapp.com/releases/1.7.8) Sep 3, 2026[.dmg](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.7.8.dmg) What changed ### Host Backups - **Export and import Termy hosts.** The Hosts menu now creates a portable JSON backup and restores it without duplicating matching destinations. - **Software-key export is optional and off by default.** When enabled, referenced software SSH keys are encrypted with your backup passphrase. Passwords are never exported. - **Device-bound keys stay device-bound.** Secure Enclave, FIDO2, and PIV private keys never leave their hardware; matching local keys are reused by fingerprint during import. ### iCloud Sync - **Sync status now reflects the current launch.** Settings distinguishes active iCloud sync, a pending restart, local-only fallback, and temporary storage. - **The restart reminder now clears correctly.** After Termy restarts with the requested sync setting, the reminder is replaced by the active or off status. - **CloudKit startup failures are visible.** Termy explains when it has fallen back to local-only storage instead of leaving an enabled toggle with no diagnostic. ### SSH Agent - **All available agent identities are now tried.** If a server rejects the first key, Termy continues with the remaining identities until one is accepted or every key has been exhausted. This fixes multi-key authentication with 1Password SSH Agent and other agents exposed through SSH\_AUTH\_SOCK. ## [v1.7.4](https://termyapp.com/releases/1.7.4) Sep 3, 2026[.dmg](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.7.4.dmg) What changed ### Companion IntelligenceBeta - **Smart reactions can now run entirely on your Mac.** Download the optional 1.38 GB, 4-bit Qwen 3.5 2B model and keep the companion’s prepared lines as an instant fallback. - **Talk directly to your companion.** A new local-only conversation window follows the selected companion’s personality and answers in the language you use. - **Active-window context is optional and private.** For selected reactions, Termy can read the frontmost window with local OCR, immediately discard the screenshot, and send nothing to the cloud. - **Conversation and project memory stays bounded and local.** The companion can remember a small set of useful facts and recent turns on this Mac, with a one-click option to clear everything. - **Intelligence controls only activate when the model is truly ready.** Incomplete downloads no longer appear installed, and the Companion item is now clearly marked Beta in Settings. ### Local Model Reliability - **The Qwen model now downloads correctly from its public Hugging Face repository.** The preparation-time authorization failure that rejected the download has been fixed. - **Interrupted downloads continue from saved progress.** Cancelling or restarting Termy preserves completed bytes so the 1.38 GB model does not need to be downloaded again. - **Downloads finish only after verification.** Progress remains visibly in flight while files are assembled and SHA-256 checked, and Termy activates only a complete verified model snapshot. - **The companion uses a memory-efficient llama.cpp runtime.** The quantized GGUF model has bounded context, cancels superseded requests, and unloads after idle time instead of leaving overlapping high-memory sessions behind. - **Structured local replies are more dependable.** Constrained JSON generation, hard timeouts, and cancellation prevent malformed-response errors and ensure a prepared reaction appears if the model is not ready in time. ### Companion Polish - **One event produces one visible reaction.** Duplicate terminal and interface signals are coalesced, and late model replies can no longer replace an already-finished fallback. - **Desktop reactions stay separate from private chat.** The companion no longer repeats random lines from an earlier conversation when reacting to the desktop. - **The companion stays anchored when a speech bubble appears.** Showing or dismissing text no longer moves the sprite, clips the bubble, or sends its geometry down the screen. - **The conversation window now behaves like Termy.** It uses the app’s dark visual language, reliably accepts keyboard focus, opens without a blank duplicate window, and automatically follows the newest message. - **New companion intelligence surfaces are localized.** Settings, download state, privacy explanations, memory controls, and conversation UI follow Termy’s selected language. ### Terminal Privacy - **Passwords are no longer saved as recent commands.** Input entered at password, passphrase, verification-code, OTP, or PIN prompts is excluded from terminal history. - **Sensitive input is excluded from session helpers.** Credentials are not retained in session previews or Inline Fix context. - **Passwords stay in the active terminal.** Sensitive prompt input is no longer mirrored to other panes when synchronized input is enabled. ### License Activation - **One-time account links no longer store your permanent license key.** Termy now completes browser activation with the signed device token and a non-secret local license identity. - **Existing licenses stay active after the update.** Previously activated Macs keep their current token and Keychain recovery data, so there is no need to enter the license key again. ## [v1.7.3](https://termyapp.com/releases/1.7.3) Sep 3, 2026[.dmg](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.7.3.dmg) What changed ### Local Terminal - **Command-T now works from Hosts.** Open a new local terminal tab even when you are not already connected to a server. - **Start Termy at a terminal prompt.** A new Startup setting can open a local terminal automatically instead of restoring tabs or showing the Hosts list. - **Local shells start in your home directory.** Login shells now open in the macOS account home rather than the filesystem root or an app container. - **Your SSH agent is available in local shells.** Termy forwards a validated \`SSH\_AUTH\_SOCK\` or uses the 1Password SSH Agent when available. ### SSH Config & Authentication - **Wildcard ProxyJump rules are applied automatically.** Saved hosts now follow matching rules such as \`Host \*switch\*.foo.com\` with \`ProxyJump proxy.foo.com\`. - **SSH Agent is available for saved hosts.** Choose SSH Agent in the host editor to authenticate through \`SSH\_AUTH\_SOCK\` or 1Password without importing private keys into Termy. - **Existing Termy routes remain authoritative.** Explicitly configured ProxyJump chains continue to take priority over automatic SSH config matching. ### ProxyJump - **Final-host authentication errors are reported correctly.** If the jump host connects but the target rejects its password or key, Termy now identifies the target authentication failure instead of blaming the intermediate host. - **Host-key diagnostics follow the failed hop.** A successfully verified proxy host key is no longer mistaken for a host-key problem on the target. - **Tunnel failures include actionable context.** Connection logs now distinguish target negotiation failures from reachability and jump-host forwarding policy issues. - **Recovery guidance keeps the configured route intact.** Troubleshooting suggestions no longer recommend disabling ProxyJump or assume that saved Termy hosts exist in \`~/.ssh/config\`. ## [v1.7.0](https://termyapp.com/releases/1.7.0) Sep 3, 2026[.dmg](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.7.0.dmg) What changed ### Companions - **Meet your new terminal companion.** Choose from five characters, each with a personality of their own. - **They follow the rhythm of your work.** Your companion reacts as you type, waits with you while commands run, and responds when commands or connections finish. - **Keep it just the way you like it.** Move your companion anywhere, turn off its comments, or hide it completely at any time in Settings. ### Everyday Improvements - **Database row counts are clearer.** PostgreSQL and MySQL tables now show an accurate total automatically, and keep it up to date after edits. - **Connections recover more gracefully.** Sessions and tunnels handle network changes more smoothly, while stopped tunnels stay stopped. ## [v1.6.2](https://termyapp.com/releases/1.6.2) Sep 3, 2026[.dmg](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.6.2.dmg) What changed ### RabbitMQ - **Connect to TLS-enabled RabbitMQ services through an SSH tunnel.** Termy now verifies the original broker correctly while carrying the connection through the local tunnel. - **Connection tests now check both RabbitMQ and its Management API.** Saved credentials are reused when appropriate, and failures clearly identify whether the broker or the Management endpoint needs attention. - **Watch new messages without naming an existing queue.** Leave Queue empty, choose an exchange and routing pattern, and start a Live tap. Termy uses a temporary queue that is removed automatically when you stop. ### Interface - **Data Service controls are now arranged consistently.** Refresh stays on the left and Disconnect stays at the far right across PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, MongoDB, ClickHouse, and RabbitMQ. - **RabbitMQ message controls now align cleanly.** Queue, prefetch, Pull, Peek, and consume actions use a consistent height and clearer active states. ## [v1.6.1](https://termyapp.com/releases/1.6.1) Sep 3, 2026[.dmg](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.6.1.dmg) What changed 1 fixes & polish - **Hosts no longer disappear after updating or restarting Termy.** Version 1.6.1 fixes a storage compatibility issue introduced in 1.6.0 while preserving your existing host catalogue. ## [v1.6.0](https://termyapp.com/releases/1.6.0) Sep 3, 2026[.dmg](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.6.0.dmg) What changed ### Getting Started - **Your first connection now takes fewer steps.** Onboarding leads directly to adding or importing a host, testing the connection, and opening a shell. - **SSH config import has a clear next step.** After importing, you can review and test the first host or connect to it immediately. - **Host X-ray appears after your first connection.** Termy identifies the system and brings the most useful host details into view as soon as the shell is ready. ### Safer Operations - **See exactly what will run before it runs.** Broadcasts, Playbooks, and command pipelines now show the command, target hosts, environment, risk, rollout settings, and verification plan before execution. - **Roll out changes gradually.** Use a canary host, limit concurrency, pause or stop a run, and inspect the result for each host before continuing. - **Unsupported Playbook steps are blocked up front.** A compatibility summary explains what Termy can run, what needs attention, and what must be changed before execution. ### Diagnostics & Activity - **Connection failures now come with a reason and a next step.** Diagnose can distinguish DNS, port, authentication, key, ProxyJump, and host-key problems and suggest a focused fix. - **Repeated Activity errors are grouped together.** You can see how often a problem occurred, when it last happened, and what to try next without digging through duplicate entries. - **Incident Capsules keep troubleshooting context together.** Save a local, redacted record of affected hosts, evidence, actions, and verification, compare hosts, and turn a verified fix into a reusable runbook. - **A weekly operations digest is available in Activity.** It summarizes recent work on this Mac and can be turned off at any time. ### Pro & Account - **The seven-day Pro trial starts after your first successful connection.** You get time to evaluate Pro after reaching real value, not while you are still setting up the app. - **The paywall now explains the feature you were trying to use.** Monthly, yearly, and lifetime plans are shown consistently at $6.99, $49.99, and $139.99. - **Activate Termy directly from your web account.** Each active license includes a one-time “Open Termy and activate” link, while copying the license key remains available as a fallback. ### Privacy & Accessibility - **Background host checks and the weekly digest are under your control.** Their status is visible in Settings, and either feature can be disabled. - **Reporting a problem is safer.** Termy removes sensitive details and asks for permission before attaching a diagnostic bundle. - **Keyboard and assistive navigation are more consistent.** Command search, quick switching, status controls, and database suggestions now expose clearer focus and selection states. - **Termy now runs on macOS 14 and newer.** Redis tools require macOS 15 or newer; the rest of the app remains available on macOS 14. ### Tailnet Discovery — Beta - **Import hosts from an installed Tailscale client.** Termy reads the local MagicDNS inventory and imports only the hosts you select, without copying your Tailscale account credentials. ## [v1.5.0](https://termyapp.com/releases/1.5.0) Sep 3, 2026[.dmg](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.5.0.dmg) What changed ### Distribution - **Termy now ships as a notarized Developer ID build.** The app and DMG are signed, submitted to Apple notarization, and stapled so macOS can verify the download through the normal Gatekeeper flow. - **Updates have a cleaner trust path.** Sparkle now points at a notarized DMG instead of the previous signed-only early-access packages. ### Included Fixes - **License recovery and activation states remain smoother.** Termy keeps the recent improvements for recovering active licenses and explaining expired or inactive access. - **SFTP focus behavior remains tightened up.** Folder navigation, focused text fields, and split-view shortcuts continue to follow the active pane more reliably. --- Official source: [Termy Releases & Download](https://termyapp.com/releases)
