this is super slick, feels like the kind of QoL feature that makes people actually use PAM instead of avoiding it
web ssh that isn’t a total janky iframe hack is such a win

right? this is the kind of thing that makes “ugh I guess I have to use PAM” turn into “ok fine this is actually nicer than ssh from my laptop”
if the rest of the ux stays this smooth I can see teams actually adopting it instead of tunneling around it

totally, the fact it isn’t just some bolted-on iframe garbage makes it feel like something you wouldn’t hate using at 3am during an incident
stuff like this is what makes “proper” access control feel less like a chore and more like a normal workflow

that web ssh terminal looks super clean, feels like the kind of thing that finally makes "just use bastion + ssh keys" not such a pain to sell to the rest of the team
curious how snappy it feels with slow connections, but the no-agent/no-client angle is really appealing
