In plain words

Switcher is a dev tool that enables SSH and HTTP(S) services to run simultaneously on the same port. By detecting incoming connection protocols, it routes traffic appropriately without requiring separate ports for each service. The project is open-source and available on GitHub for developers who want to consolidate their server infrastructure or simplify network configuration.

  • Sshsync – CLI tool to run shell commands across multiple remote servers2025 · github.com · ▲47

    I built a CLI tool called `sshsync` to run shell commands and transfer files across multiple servers over SSH concurrently. It was inspired by tools like `pssh`, but I wanted something more modern, intuitive, and Pythonic. What it does: - Run shell commands on multiple servers (in parallel) - Push/pull files or directories with progress bars - Uses `~/.ssh/config` and lets you group hosts with YAML - Supports `--dry-run` mode to preview actions without executing - Outputs results using `rich` (tables, colors) - Built with `Typer`, `asyncssh`, and `rich` There’s no daemon or…

  • Ts-SSH – SSH over Tailscale without running the daemon2025 · github.com · ▲103

    ts-ssh solves a specific problem: accessing machines on your Tailnet from environments where you can't install the full Tailscale daemon (like CI/CD runners or restricted systems). It uses Tailscale's tsnet library to establish userspace connectivity, then provides a standard SSH experience. Works with existing workflows since it supports normal SSH features like ProxyCommand, key auth, and terminal handling. Some features that proved useful: • Parallel command execution across multiple hosts • Built-in tmux session management for multi-host work • SCP-style file transfers • Works on…

  • Talanoa▲346

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
