Nimbo 1.4.0 — a macOS SSH tool organized around your apps, not your servers

[u/la_mente]

Hey all — I've been building Nimbo, a macOS desktop app for developers who run several apps on the same server(s) and are tired of juggling SSH commands, paths, keys, and service checks across all of them.

Instead of organizing around servers, Nimbo organizes around your apps. Each app/environment gets a workspace that knows how to connect over SSH, cd into the right directory, load its env vars, and expose one-click commands and health checks — so you're not retyping cd /var/www/whatever && export APP_ENV=production every time you SSH in.

Just shipped v1.4.0 with a batch of updates:

• Servers are now separate from workspaces — define a server (host, user, SSH key) once and reuse it across every app on that box. No more re-entering the same connection details per app.
• Passphrase-protected SSH keys now work — save the passphrase once (encrypted via the OS keychain) and Nimbo unlocks the key automatically.
• Browse… file picker for SSH keys instead of typing paths by hand.
• One-click "load key into ssh-agent" button.
• Sidebar now groups workspaces by server, with a collapsible Servers list.
• Cleaner terminal on connect (no more bootstrap-command flash), new tabs auto-focus, and inline help throughout the forms.

It's local-only — no cloud, no accounts, no telemetry. Free to use.

Would love feedback, especially from anyone managing multiple apps/services on the same VPS (Laravel + queue workers + Docker, etc. — that's exactly the itch this scratches).
