Changelog

v0.0.24

• Fix the interface_name resolver strategy: it sent filter names that NetBox ignores and therefore returned the host's first IP address instead of the named interface's. It now uses NetBox's interface and vminterface filters; a missing interface falls through to the next strategy.
• Fix netssh sftp and netssh scp with instance-qualified hosts (prod/web01:/path), which were taken for local paths.
• Fix shell aliases of instance-qualified hosts ignoring anchored rewrite rules (fsn_fsn1-pve1 instead of fsn_fsnpve1).
• Add netssh multi to open several hosts side by side in tmux or zellij: host lists, tag:, NetBox virtualization clusters (cluster:, devices by default, --kind vm|all), and groups from the config (@name). --sync sends typing to all panes; netssh sync toggles it later. In the TUI, Space marks hosts and Enter opens them together. Configurable in netssh configure (multiplexer, panes per window, groups).
• tmux keys for broadcast in netssh multi windows: prefix S toggles all panes, prefix e excludes the current pane (border [SOLO]) or includes it again; also netssh sync --pane. Both keys are unbound in a default tmux, are not bound if your tmux.conf uses them, act only in netssh windows, and can be changed or turned off (multi.sync_key, multi.solo_key).
• netssh multi widens the status bar of its own tmux session, which tmux otherwise cuts to [netssh-pv.
• Cache entries remember the NetBox cluster of a host, for cluster: completion and offline use.
• Add testenv/, a local Docker environment with two NetBox instances, SSH targets, a jump host, tmux, zellij, and bash/zsh/fish, and 185 end-to-end checks of all features, including netssh multi with real tmux and zellij and screenshot checks of what a real terminal (xterm) renders (testenv/up.sh, testenv/test.sh). Not part of CI/CD.

v0.0.23

• netssh configure now covers every setting: after the instances, a menu opens with SSH defaults, SSH options (jump host, host key checking, connection target, address family, extra arguments, -o options), SSH rules (add, edit, remove by tag, instance, kind, name pattern), resolver & cache (including the cache file), shortcuts & command alias, and completion (max_results). SSH options can also be set per NetBox instance from the instance list.
• Fix netssh configure dropping global SSH options, ssh.rules, and completion.max_results from the config file when saving.
• The configurator validates SSH options and rules before writing the config.
• Add shortcuts.rewrites: regex rules that shorten hostnames, e.g. ^([a-z]+)[0-9]+- → $1 turns fsn1-bx1.hoster.de into fsnbx1. Shortcuts work for connecting, shell aliases, and Tab completion (offered when the full name does not match), and can be edited in netssh configure.
• Add netssh alias --test HOSTNAME to show the shortcut of a name and the cached hosts it matches.
• Add netssh sftp and netssh scp: host lookup, shortcuts, instances, default user and port, SSH options and rules, jump host, --dry-run, and completion work as for ssh. IPv6 addresses are bracketed for host:path.
• Add named port forwards (ssh.forwards globally, per instance, and per rule), netssh tunnel HOST NAME|SPEC... (ssh -N with ExitOnForwardFailure), and netssh --forward NAME. Forwards are editable in netssh configure and completed in the shell.
• TUI: Ctrl+O opens SFTP, Ctrl+T starts a tunnel with configured or ad hoc forwards.
• Add the hostname resolver strategy: connect by the NetBox name (plus optional resolver.hostname_domain) instead of an IP, always or as a fallback after primary_ip.
• Add static hosts (hosts:) for machines that are not in NetBox, with user, port, tags, and SSH options, managed with netssh hosts list|add|remove and in netssh configure. They are found before NetBox, work offline and without any NetBox, and support shortcuts, rules (kind: static), completion, aliases, sftp, scp, tunnels, and the TUI.
• Fix options added by netssh landing after -- (netssh --no-jump -- host), where ssh read them as the destination.

v0.0.22

• Fix shell completion with multiple NetBox instances: typing a hostname without an instance prefix (fsn1-bx1<Tab>) found nothing in bash and zsh, because only prod/… was offered. Hostnames that are unique across all instances are now offered without the prefix; connecting to them still checks every instance for ambiguous names.
• zsh also accepts instance-qualified matches for the typed hostname, so names that exist in several instances are offered as prod/… and stg/….

v0.0.21

• Ship a zsh completion script built for large caches: 5000 hosts complete in under 0.1 s instead of hanging for seconds with Cobra's generated script.
• Add completion.max_results to limit the number of hostnames offered per completion.
• Register zsh completion in the managed .zshrc block (fpath and compdef), also when compinit already ran, e.g. with oh-my-zsh. The installer reports which completions it set up.
• Add netssh uninstall [--keep-config] [--dry-run] [--yes] to remove the binary, profile entries of all versions, completions, cache, and config (with a private backup).
• Write marked # >>> netssh >>> blocks from netssh hook install and the wizard, replacing unmarked entries of older versions instead of appending.
• Add jump host support: ssh.proxy_jump globally, per NetBox instance, and per rule, plus --jump HOST and --no-jump.
• Add ssh.host_key_checking (strict, accept-new, off) for netssh connections only.
• Add ssh.target: name|hostname so ~/.ssh/config host patterns apply and known_hosts entries belong to the device, and ssh.address_family.
• Add ssh.options and ssh.extra_args, and ssh.rules that match by tag, instance, kind, or name pattern.
• Add netssh --version / netssh version and netssh --dry-run to print the final ssh command.
