SSH, tunnels, Docker, and Kubernetes in one desktop app.

Local-first workstation for DevOps, SRE, and platform engineers. Free to use. Pro when work gets bigger. Cover the daily remote-ops loop—bastion SSH, local↔remote tunnels, host monitoring, containers, and multi-cluster Kubernetes—without juggling five Electron apps.

Vazhion welcome screen with hosts and quick connect

SSH, files, and undocked windows

  • Bastion and jump-host profiles, keys, and reconnection without leaving the app
  • Integrated terminal next to your file tree for day-2 operations
  • Undock tabs, hosts, and terminals into floating windows

Port forwarding both directions

  • Local → remote: expose a local service to the host or peer for debugging
  • Remote → local: bring a remote DB, API, or admin UI to localhost
  • Detect listening ports on the remote host; tunnels survive reconnects

Monitor and Tools on every host

  • System, SSH, network, logs, disk, services, Nginx, and dashboard views
  • Process, health checks, runbooks, HTTP lab, certificates, jobs, packages, data stores
  • Inspect and act during incidents without switching to five other apps

Docker on the connected host

  • Inspect containers, images, networks, and volumes over the same SSH session
  • See status, ports, and images for the workloads running on that host
  • Included on Free and Pro, next to Terminal, Monitor, and port forwarding

Kubernetes and Vazhion Kube Console

  • Remote clusters over SSH (bastion-friendly) in the main app; local kubeconfig via vazhion-kube
  • Console: Nodes, Workloads, Config, Network (Services, Ingress, NetworkPolicies, port-forward), Storage, Namespaces, Events, Helm, RBAC, CRDs, Overview, Topology
  • Logs, exec, and resource drawers for day-2 cluster ops. Free: local + 1 remote; Pro: unlimited remote

Built in C++ for long laptop days

  • The entire app is native C++ and Dear ImGui: UI, SSH, tunnels, Docker, and Kubernetes
  • That one native process stays lighter on CPU and RAM than browser-based ops apps doing the same work
  • Less heat and longer battery life on travel and field laptops

Pro networking when the lab becomes a jobPro

  • SSH SOCKS VPN for browser and tool traffic through the host
  • VNC sessions with undockable viewers
  • Networking extras: firewall, interfaces, routes, NAT, DNS, tunnels

Optional AI with your own keys

  • BYOK agent: OpenRouter, OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, MiniMax, Google, or Custom—you pay the provider
  • No Vazhion AI tokens. Ask, Agent, and Plan modes with SSH, files, Docker, and kubectl tools
  • Consent gate before any prompt leaves the machine. Free includes a monthly taste; Pro removes the cap.
