Tempest is a cross-platform terminal emulator and SSH client for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android, supporting SSH, RDP, VNC, SFTP, FTP, S3, WebDAV, Telnet, RCON, Kubernetes, Serial, Local Shell, MSYS, and Zmodem. It includes a built-in AI agent that can read errors, plan fixes, and run commands, and it syncs sessions end-to-end encrypted across devices so users can start a session on desktop and resume it on their phone. It also supports Kubernetes cluster management, team collaboration with shared vaults and ACLs, session recording for audit, and self-hosted or web deployment via Docker/Kubernetes.
