Features & Capabilities

The ssh terminal app built for AI agent operators. Tmux-aware. iPad-native. SSH keys via Secure Enclave. No subscription, fully private.

ShellDrop is a fast, focused, native iOS ssh terminal app designed for AI agent operators managing Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Hermes on headless machines. Tmux-aware, iPad-native, designed around real human-agent flow and gestures.

HUMAN-AGENT FLOW ShellDrop is designed for working on multiple sessions at the same time. Intuitive swiping gestures allow you to quickly change sessions and identify which one you're currently on. Various design elements are intentionally chosen and placed to draw the user's eye to key areas, so you navigate with as little thinking as possible. It's organic, intuitive, fast.
