mosh on a Mac

Roaming, lag-tolerant remote shell (SSH bootstrap + UDP) · Networking

mosh (mobile shell) logs in over your existing SSH settings, then hands the session to its own encrypted UDP transport; so the shell survives sleep, changing networks and flaky Wi-Fi, with local echo that stays responsive on high-latency links. Install it here on this Mac, put mosh-server on the server (brew install mosh / apt install mosh), and allow UDP 60000–61000 through the server's firewall. Then pick mosh as *Connect via* in any fleet server's settings and Open Shell / Open SSH use it automatically. File transfer and FrontierStack's own probes stay on plain SSH; mosh carries interactive sessions only.
