AirSCP
Provides tools for monitoring and managing Linux servers over SSH, including viewing CPU, memory, disks, processes, and ports, opening tunnels, and running commands and snippets.
Two panes: your Mac on the left, a server on the right. Drag to copy, also server to server.
A transfer queue that runs in the background: pause and resume, go on after a dropped connection, check copies with SHA-256, limit the speed.
Folders as one fast stream, with compression and "leave out" patterns (
node_modules, *.log).Synchronize two folders with a preview first; Find Files on a server by name or pattern.
Every way in: keys, passwords, 2FA codes, jump hosts, HTTP and SOCKS5 proxies. Your
~/.ssh/configjust works.Remote Desktop for Windows built in, with the clipboard and files both ways.
Monitor a Linux server (CPU, memory, disks, processes, ports), open tunnels, run commands and snippets.
Keys: make any key type, put it on a server, import and export PuTTY
.ppk.AI agents can drive it over MCP when you allow it: their changes wait for your OK, and they never see your passwords.

Install
brew install --cask kleash/tap/airscpOr download the zip from Releases. The first time you open AirSCP, macOS says it can't check the app for malware (AirSCP isn't notarized yet): click Done, then System Settings ▸ Privacy & Security ▸ Open Anyway. On macOS 14 or earlier, right-click AirSCP ▸ Open works too. Every file has its SHA-256, and the ones GitHub built have signed build provenance: check a download.
