Recommended Flow
Section titled “Recommended Flow”- From your local terminal, run
b2v ssh <host>. - Finish SSH auth as usual.
- Work in the remote shell that
b2v sshopens for you. - Open back2vibing if you want to confirm completions are making it back locally.
- Optionally save the same host in the SSH Remote tab for status, setup reruns, or SSH config helpers.
b2v ssh <host> is the default path now. It reuses a local SSH control master, refreshes remote setup when needed, and opens your remote shell immediately.
UI-Managed Flow
Section titled “UI-Managed Flow”Use the SSH Remote tab when you want a saved host inside the app.
- Open SSH Remote.
- Add your host (
user@host). - Turn on the saved connection.
- Complete SSH auth in the Terminal window that opens.
- Return to back2vibing and use Run Setup or the SSH config helper if needed.
The Terminal window from the UI flow is just the auth handoff for the saved app-managed connection. Its output is not the same shell/log stream you see from b2v ssh <host>.
tmux Monitoring Fallback
Section titled “tmux Monitoring Fallback”If you specifically want tmux-based remote monitoring, you can still use b2v ssh-watch <host>.
Reliability Tips
Section titled “Reliability Tips”- Accept host keys in a normal SSH session before running setup.
- Save the host in SSH Remote if you want a visible saved entry in the app.
- Keep tmux active when using
b2v ssh-watch <host>. - Keep network stable while setup scripts are being installed.
