netssh multi opens one pane per host in a tmux window or zellij tab.
Hosts come from names, tag:TAG (NetBox and static hosts), cluster:NAME
(NetBox virtualization clusters; devices by default, --kind vm|all),
and groups from the config (@name, nested, with cycle detection).
Every pane runs netssh HOST, so lookup, rules, and jump hosts apply.
- tmux: a new window inside tmux, else a new session that is attached;
tiled layout, pane borders with the host and a [SYNC] marker.
- zellij: a generated grid layout; a new tab inside zellij, else a new
session.
- --sync broadcasts typing to all panes; netssh sync toggles it in the
current tmux window or zellij tab.
- TUI: Space marks hosts, Ctrl+A marks all, Enter opens them together.
- Configurator: multiplexer, panes per window, groups.
NetBox SearchAll gains a cluster filter (name to cluster IDs per
instance), and cache entries keep the host's cluster for completion
and an offline fallback. Panes skip the 24-hour background refresh
(checked once by multi) and get HOME/XDG paths but no NETSSH_* values,
which would expose tokens in the process list.
testenv/tests/15-multi.sh checks real tmux and zellij sessions,
including a broadcast command arriving on all three cluster nodes.

Add the hostname resolver strategy. It connects by the NetBox name
instead of an IP, with resolver.hostname_domain appended to names
without a dot. Its position in the chain decides whether it is always
used or only as a fallback (e.g. [primary_ip, hostname]); names that
are not valid DNS hostnames fall through to the next strategy.
Add static hosts under hosts: for machines that are not in NetBox,
with address, user, port, tags, and their own SSH options. They are
checked before NetBox (by name or shortcut), never expire, survive
cache refresh and clear, and work without any NetBox configured. The
cache overlays them after every load and stores only their last use,
so they appear in completion, aliases, the TUI and its recent list.
SSH options merge global, static host, then rules; rules can match
kind: static. Manage them with netssh hosts list|add|remove and in
netssh configure, which can now also continue without NetBox.

- **Shortcuts**: Add hostname normalization with domain stripping and hyphen folding. Include alias generation for cached hosts.
- **Shell Hook**: Automate 24h cache refresh trigger with shell startup hook. Add install/uninstall commands for bash, zsh, and fish.
- **Wizard**: Extend setup wizard to configure shortcuts (domains, hyphen stripping) and default SSH port.
- **Cache**: Add `GetByShortcut` for resolving hosts via normalized shortcuts. Implement `NeedsRefresh` / `SetRefreshed` logic for refresh timestamps.
- **Tests**: Comprehensive unit tests for shortcuts, hook installation, cache refresh, and alias generation.
- **Docs**: Update README with shortcuts, shell hook, and default SSH port configuration.
- **Strategies**: Add resolver strategy input validation and parsing in setup wizard. Support comma-separated input with known strategy mapping.
- **Client**: Extend Search and SearchAll to include kind and tag filters. Add pagination for full cache refresh handling large datasets.
- **Cache**: Introduce `RecentlyUsed` and `MarkUsed`. Persist `LastUsed` timestamps for entries.
- **TUI**: Add recent hosts view, tag/kind filters, and inline editor for user/port override.
- **Tests**: Comprehensive unit tests for new features, including strategy validation, cache behavior, and client filtering.
- **Docs**: Update README with new TUI features and cache subcommands.
