Nexus Shell

Nexus Shell is a native SwiftUI SSH workspace for Apple silicon Macs. It combines multi-tab terminals, dual-pane SFTP, SSH key management, Docker controls, live server and network monitoring, and encrypted local session logs in one focused app. Basic personal SSH is free. New accounts include a 7-day Pro trial, and Pro is a $12.88 one-time purchase with no subscription.

The direct-download and Homebrew editions also offer an optional local Agent Bridge for approved AI coding agents. It is disabled by default, requires explicit approval, and never exposes stored passwords or private keys. macOS 14.2 or later is required.
