xtty launches native macOS terminal for coding agents.

xtty’s strongest idea is reducing the repetitive setup around remote development rather than reinventing the terminal itself.

• –Duplicate Tab opens an independent SSH connection in the same remote directory, while tmux remains the better choice for persistent sessions.
• –SSH config support, jump hosts, credential autofill, and sz/rz file transfers target real operational friction.
• –Claude Code and Codex status indicators make the terminal a useful control surface for background coding agents.
• –Broadcast input is powerful for multi-host work but requires careful pane selection to avoid costly mistakes.
• –The US$29.90 one-time Pro price is attractive against subscription-heavy tools, though macOS-only and proprietary positioning limit portability versus iTerm2 or Ghostty. [DEV Community](https://dev.to/jian_xu_607a1d700c0b997a2/xtty-opening-a-second-ssh-shell-without-repeating-the-setup-4c2c)
