Each tunnel is its own SSH connection, so a host needs no terminal open first. Ports bind to loopback unless you widen them, and are remembered between launches.
20

Double-click a folder to take the shell there. It works on SSH panes and on local ones, WSL included, follows a `cd` you type by hand, and is remembered per pane when you switch workspaces or relaunch.

Off by default — it is the one feature that stores what you typed — and it refuses anything that looks like it carries a credential.
24
+ - Workspaces for grouping sessions and quickly switching between projects or tasks. Drag the tabs beside the wordmark to put them in the order you want; `Ctrl+Shift+1` … `9` follow that order, and it is remembered between launches. Right-click a tab to rename it, duplicate it, move it, or close it. Each workspace keeps its own panes, layout, focused terminal, and maximized pane, so switching to one restores the arrangement you left it in. Workspaces survive a relaunch: local `screen` terminals reattach on their own, and SSH panes come back as ghost rows that reconnect when clicked, rather than dialling out to a host on startup.

70

+ ## The command history palette
100
+
101
+ `Ctrl+Shift+R` opens a search over the commands you have actually run, ranked so
102
+ the one you want is usually first: same directory beats same host, recent beats
103
+ frequent, something that worked beats something that failed, and something you
104
+ picked from this palette before beats something you merely ran. Typing matches a
105
+ subsequence, so `gcm` finds `git commit -m`, and the matched characters are
106
+ highlighted so it is clear why a row is there.
107
+
108
+ Enter puts the command on the prompt **without running it**. The command came out
109
+ of a store rather than from your hands a moment ago, so pressing Enter is your
110
+ decision — and it leaves room to change an argument, which is most of why anyone
111
+ reaches for history.
112
+
113
+ `Ctrl+R` is untouched. Your shell keeps its own reverse search; McFly can rebind
114
+ that key because it *is* the shell, and ZeroG taking it would remove
115
+ reverse-search from every pane including remote ones this feature cannot see.
116
+
117
+ ### Turning it on
118
+
119
+ Recording is off until you switch it on in Settings under "AI & voice". It is the
120
+ only part of ZeroG that stores what you typed, so it is opt-in rather than a
121
+ default you have to find and disable.
122
+
123
+ Commands are read from the standard OSC 133 prompt marks a shell emits — the same
124
+ marks VS Code, kitty, WezTerm and Windows Terminal use. If you already have shell
125
+ integration from any of those, or from an oh-my-zsh plugin, ZeroG reads what is
126
+ already there and you need to add nothing. Otherwise Settings offers a snippet
127
+ per shell to paste into your rc file, and the panel says how many of your open
128
+ panes are actually reporting marks, so "did that work" has an answer.
129
+
130
+ A remote host needs the snippet installed on the remote host: the marks come from
131
+ the shell, and over SSH that shell is on the far side. A pane whose shell reports
132
+ no marks records nothing, rather than guessing from the screen and recording
133
+ something wrong.
134
+
135
+ ### What is stored, and what is refused
136
+
137
+ Each entry holds the command, the directory and host it ran in, its exit status,
138
+ when it last ran, how many times, and how often you picked it. It lives in
139
+ `command-history.json` in ZeroG's profile directory, written with owner-only
140
+ permissions. "Forget all remembered commands" empties it and deletes the file.
141
+
142
+ A command that looks like it carries a credential is refused outright rather than
143
+ stored with the value masked — a masked entry still records that you set a
144
+ particular secret in a particular directory at a particular time. Refused shapes
145
+ include assignments to anything named like a token, key, secret or password;
146
+ `--password`, `--token` and `--api-key` flags; credentials inside a URL;
147
+ `Authorization` headers; `curl -u user:pass`; vendor-shaped tokens; and long
148
+ high-entropy words.
149
+
150
+ This is not a complete defence and is not claimed to be. A secret typed as a bare
151
+ argument to an unusual program, or piped in from `echo`, looks like ordinary text.
152
+ See [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md).

165
+ ## Sharing ports over SSH
166
+
167
+ The Ports button in the rail opens a list of shared ports, grouped by the host
168
+ each one runs through. "Share port" asks for a host and a port, and the port is
169
+ then reachable as though the service were running here.
170
+
171
+ Two directions are available under "More options". The default sends a port on
172
+ the remote to this machine, which is what a remote dev server, database, or
173
+ debugger needs. The other sends a port here to the remote, for a webhook or an
174
+ agent on that host calling back. A row always names the side that listens first,
175
+ so which way a tunnel runs is never left to be inferred.
176
+
177
+ A shared port answers only on the machine that binds it, unless you tick "Share
178
+ on my network" — which re-exports the service to whatever network that machine is
179
+ attached to, and is marked `LAN` on the row so it cannot be forgotten about. A
180
+ port sent to the remote is bound on loopback there by default; widening it also
181
+ needs `GatewayPorts` enabled in that host's `sshd_config`, and the row says so
182
+ when the server refuses.
183
+
184
+ Each tunnel is a separate `ssh` process, which is what makes closing one exact:
185
+ the cross stops that tunnel and nothing else. It also means a host that
186
+ authenticates with a password asks once per tunnel, in the panel, and nothing
187
+ typed there is stored. Hosts using a key or an agent are not asked at all.
188
+
189
+ Shared ports are remembered between launches and come back listed but not
190
+ connected. Clicking one reconnects it — the app never opens a connection to a
191
+ host on its own at startup.
192
+
193
+ ## AI command suggestions
194
+
195
+ Set an endpoint in Settings under "AI & voice": a base URL ending in `/v1`, a
196
+ model, and a key if the endpoint wants one. One field serves every provider,
197
+ because `chat/completions` is the request shape they all implement — a local
198
+ Ollama at `http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1` needs no key at all. "Test connection"
199
+ asks the model for a token and reports what came back, and "Refresh" lists the
200
+ models the endpoint says it has. A key is stored encrypted by the operating
201
+ system, never in the settings file, and is only ever read in the main process:
202
+ it is not held in the window.
203
+
204
+ Suggest asks what you want, then returns a single command with an explanation.
205
+ Only one command, ever — a reply naming several, or answering in prose rather
206
+ than the structure asked for, produces no command to run and says so. The
207
+ command is written to the pane you asked from, not to whichever pane is focused
208
+ when the answer arrives.
209
+
210
+ By default the model is told only your shell, directory and host. Turning on
211
+ "Send recent terminal output" also sends the tail of the focused pane, which is
212
+ what lets a suggestion read the error you are actually looking at — and means
213
+ terminal content goes to whatever endpoint you configured. The panel says which
214
+ of those is happening.
215
+
216
+ While output is being sent, approval cannot be turned off. Terminal output can
217
+ come from a remote host, and a host can print text shaped like an instruction;
218
+ a command chosen downstream of that must be read before it runs. The output is
219
+ sent as clearly delimited data with the delimiter stripped out of it, and the
220
+ answer is only believed if it arrives in the exact structure requested — but
221
+ neither of those is trusted to hold on its own, which is why the approval step
222
+ is not optional in that configuration.

+ ### Duplicating a workspace
256
+
257
+ Right-clicking a tab offers **Duplicate**, which copies the arrangement rather
258
+ than the sessions: the layout comes across, and each SSH pane comes across as a
259
+ pane waiting to be reconnected, so clicking it opens a *new* session to the same
260
+ host. A local pane is not copied — its shell is a process on this machine, so a
261
+ copy would be a different terminal rather than a duplicate of anything, and the
262
+ status line says how many were left behind rather than letting you notice a pane
263
+ missing.
264
+
265
+ ## Browsing directories inside a pane
266
+
267
+ The folder button in a pane's title bar splits that pane: the terminal on one
268
+ side, the directories where its shell is standing on the other. Drag the divider
269
+ to change the balance, double-click it to centre it, or use the arrow keys when
270
+ it has focus. A pane remembers whether its browser was open and where the divider
271
+ was, per workspace and between launches.
272
+
273
+ Single-click a folder to look inside it without moving the shell.
274
+ **Double-click** it to take the shell there — ZeroG types the `cd` into the pane,
275
+ which is deliberately visible: you asked for it, and seeing the command is how
276
+ you know what happened. The button in the bottom-right corner does the same for
277
+ the directory already on screen, which is how you retry after a `cd` that was
278
+ refused because the pane was busy, or catch the shell up after browsing around.
279
+ `..` is always the first row, except at a root the shell cannot go above.
280
+
281
+ A single click waits a moment before it acts, because it has to find out whether
282
+ it is the first half of a double-click: browsing immediately would replace the
283
+ row under the pointer and the second press would land on a different one.
284
+
285
+ The browser opens on the directory the pane's shell reports, and on the login
286
+ directory before it has reported anything — a pane that has just connected has
287
+ run nothing, so there is nothing to read yet. That login directory comes from the
288
+ connection itself, never from a command typed into your session.
289
+
290
+ Where it lists from depends on the pane. An SSH pane lists over an SFTP
291
+ connection to its host, opening one if there is not already one open — the same
292
+ client, `~/.ssh/config`, agent and `known_hosts` the transfer panel uses, and the
293
+ same connection when both are looking at the same host. If the host asks for a
294
+ password, a key passphrase, or a decision about its host key, the browser says
295
+ so and the transfer panel (⇅) is where you answer: it shows the question with
296
+ the key fingerprint beside it, and ZeroG never answers one on your behalf. The
297
+ login directory that connection reports is also how a `~` in the pane's prompt
298
+ becomes a path. A native local pane lists the filesystem directly. A WSL pane lists the distribution through the `\\wsl.localhost\` share
299
+ Windows serves it on, so what you see is the distribution's own filesystem and
300
+ not the Windows one — and `~` is resolved by asking the distribution once, never
301
+ by typing `pwd` into your pane.
302
