What's new
Version 2026.34 · 10 days ago
This version introduces Mosh as an experimental feature. Choose Mosh under Persistence when editing a server to try it. Mosh is designed to keep the terminal connected as you move between Wi-Fi and cellular, through network dropouts and while your iPhone or iPad sleeps, and to show what you type right away on a slow connection. The server needs mosh-server and must accept UDP on ports 60000 to 61000, and ShellFish shows how to install mosh-server if it is missing. If Mosh gives you trouble, switch Persistence back to None or tmux, and feedback on what went wrong is very welcome. Images sent with the kitty graphics protocol now show in the terminal, from tools like kitten icat and yazi and from Claude Code mods that draw images. Run Install from Shell Integration on the server so Claude Code knows it can draw them. Images do not come through tmux or Mosh. Creating a security key such as a YubiKey, or signing in with one, now works on iOS 27. Fixes a new terminal sometimes being only a few rows tall when the keyboard bar is set to Always. Includes improvements from last version: ShellFish now supports iPhone Duo. On the wide inner display the terminal toolbar moves to a vertical strip beside the terminal with your tabs, the session picker and the server icon, and the keyboard bar spreads its keys across the wider keyboard. Partly folded like a laptop, the terminal takes the top half and is ready for typing. Suggest Command turns a plain-language description such as "make a compressed archive of src without the log files" into a shell command, using Apple's Private Cloud Compute model. Long-press the paste button on the keyboard bar or press Cmd-I. The model reads the manual pages on the server you are connected to, so it suggests options that exist there, and the command is only inserted at the prompt when you choose Insert. Requires the latest version of iOS with Apple Intelligence enabled. Shortcuts actions no longer have to finish within a few seconds. On the latest version of iOS an upload, a download or the listing of a large folder keeps running in the background for as long as it needs, showing how far it has come and offering a stop button if you want to end it early. A new Control Cloud Server action creates, starts, stops, checks and destroys cloud servers. You pick the region, the plan and the system image the same way you do in the app, and a server that takes minutes to come up reports what it is doing while you wait. The server it gives you back drops straight into the next action, even before you have saved it as a server of your own. A new Run Command action then runs a command on that server, or on any saved server, without opening the app. Output appears line by line while the command works and the full output is handed back to the rest of your shortcut, so a single shortcut can bring up a server, run a build or a backup on it that takes minutes, and shut it down again.

What's new
Version 2026.34 · 31 Oct 2026 ·
This version introduces Mosh as an experimental feature. Choose Mosh under Persistence when editing a server to try it. Mosh is designed to keep the terminal connected as you move between Wi-Fi and cellular, through network dropouts and while your iPhone or iPad sleeps, and to show what you type right away on a slow connection. The server needs mosh-server and must accept UDP on ports 60000 to 61000, and ShellFish shows how to install mosh-server if it is missing. If Mosh gives you trouble, switch Persistence back to None or tmux, and feedback on what went wrong is very welcome.
Images sent with the kitty graphics protocol now show in the terminal, from tools like kitten icat and yazi and from Claude Code mods that draw images. Run Install from Shell Integration on the server so Claude Code knows it can draw them. Images do not come through tmux or Mosh.
Creating a security key such as a YubiKey, or signing in with one, now works on iOS 27.
Fixes a new terminal sometimes being only a few rows tall when the keyboard bar is set to Always.
Includes improvements from last version:
ShellFish now supports iPhone Duo. On the wide inner display the terminal toolbar moves to a vertical strip beside the terminal with your tabs, the session picker and the server icon, and the keyboard bar spreads its keys across the wider keyboard. Partly folded like a laptop, the terminal takes the top half and is ready for typing.
Suggest Command turns a plain-language description such as "make a compressed archive of src without the log files" into a shell command, using Apple's Private Cloud Compute model. Long-press the paste button on the keyboard bar or press Cmd-I. The model reads the manual pages on the server you are connected to, so it suggests options that exist there, and the command is only inserted at the prompt when you choose Insert. Requires the latest version of iOS with Apple Intelligence enabled.
Shortcuts actions no longer have to finish within a few seconds. On the latest version of iOS an upload, a download or the listing of a large folder keeps running in the background for as long as it needs, showing how far it has come and offering a stop button if you want to end it early.
A new Control Cloud Server action creates, starts, stops, checks and destroys cloud servers.

The server it gives you back drops straight into the next action, even before you have saved it as a server of your own.
A new Run Command action then runs a command on that server, or on any saved server, without opening the app. Output appears line by line while the command works and the full output is handed back to the rest of your shortcut, so a single shortcut can bring up a server, run a build or a backup on it that takes minutes, and shut it down again.
