# Termy 1.7.9: OpenSSH Config

Keep your hosts and jump routes in ~/.ssh/config and let Termy use them directly.

[Download 1.7.9 for macOS](https://dl.termyapp.com/releases/Termy-1.7.9.dmg)[All releases ↗](https://termyapp.com/releases)

Current public builds require macOS 26 or later. This is the latest public release in the verified feed.

## 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.

## Connection and compatibility reference

Read the [SSH workflow](https://termyapp.com/ssh-client-macos), [SSH Config guide](https://termyapp.com/guides/ssh-config-proxyjump) and [compatibility documentation](https://termyapp.com/compatibility) for the current application behavior.
