# Termy 1.7.3: Local Terminal & SSH Workflow Update

Open a local terminal from anywhere, reuse your SSH agent, and connect through wildcard ProxyJump rules from your existing SSH config.

[Download 1.7.3 for macOS](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.7.3.dmg)[All releases ↗](https://termyapp.com/releases)

Current public builds require macOS 26 or later. [See the latest release: 1.7.9.](https://termyapp.com/releases/1.7.9)

## 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\`.
