GGH is a small CLI application that recalls your SSH sessions and searches your SSH configuration file. It's a lightweight CLI wrapping SSH commands (you must have SSH installed), but it does not replace SSH:

# Use it just like you're using SSH
ggh root@server.com
ggh root@server.com -p2440
 
# Run it with no arguments to get interactive list of the previous sessions
ggh
 
# Run it with - to get interactive list of all of your ~/.ssh/config listing
ggh -
 
# Run it with - STRING to get interactive filtered list of your ~/.ssh/config listing
ggh - stage
ggh - meta-servers
 
# To get non-interactive list of history and config, run
ggh --config
ggh --history

When you run ggh it will give you an interactive list of sessions to conveniently reconnect. If you want GGH to scan your ~/.ssh/config file, you can run ggh - to get an interactive list of configured connections:

This CLI is a lightweight Golang package that works on Unix and Windows systems. The project source code is available on GitHub at byawitz/ggh.

GGH has installers for Windows and Unix:

# Unix based
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/byawitz/ggh/master/install/unix.sh | sh
 
# Windows
powershell -c "irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/byawitz/ggh/master/install/windows.ps1 | iex"
 
# Go
go install github.com/byawitz/ggh@latest
