One product system
Start with one machine. Grow into a fleet.
cmdop connect — remote terminal with no open ports
Use cmdop connect as a remote terminal for joined machines: run commands, move files, and let agents ask other agents over outbound-only access.
One binary. One line.
The CLI is built into cmdop — there is nothing separate to install. The command-line agent, the live terminal, and the SSH replacement all ship in the same binary.
Login, connect, chat.
Authenticate once, connect this machine to the relay, and you have a remote terminal you can reach from anywhere — CLI, Desktop, or another agent.
A terminal that livesinside the binary.
Real terminal, not a wrapper
Connecting happens through the cmdop binary like a living terminal — full PTY, real shell, real output. It is the agent runtime reaching the machine, not a shell-out to ssh.
Outbound-only, NAT-friendly
Use cmdop connect as a remote terminal for joined machines: run commands, move files, and let agents ask other agents over outbound-only access.
Remote exec, file ops, share links
Run commands, transfer and edit files, and mint a share link to a live terminal — all from the same connection, with a permission gate over what a remote agent may do.
Agents ask other agents
A connected agent can call ask_machine to delegate to another machine and stream the answer back. The fleet becomes one addressable surface.
Same connection from anywhere
CLI, Desktop, or an agent — they all reach the same connected machine. Open a terminal on your phone that an agent opened on a server.
The full command surface
Everything the live terminal does is one command away. The CLI uses the same cmdop agent as the browser console and tray surface — no GUI required.

SSH for AI ops, without the SSH.
No keys to distribute, no ports to open, no bastion to babysit. cmdop connect gives you the reach of SSH with an outbound-only relay, a permission gate, and agents that can act on your behalf.
