Cura - SSH client & server monitor - dashboard, alerts, terminal

by•
Cura is a native Android app for managing Linux servers over SSH. No cloud, no middleman, your keys never leave the device. Live CPU/RAM/disk/network stats, Uptime Kuma-style service monitoring, full-color terminal emulator, saved commands, syslog viewer, and system health checks. Built for sysadmins and homelabbers who want real server tools that fit in their pocket - not a stripped-down SSH client.

I Built this because every Android SSH client I tried was either a terminal with nothing else, or a monitoring dashboard with no terminal. I wanted both in one app, built for sysadmins who need to manage servers from their phone without juggling five tools. What's in it: - Multi-server dashboard with health scores, CPU/RAM/disk, drag-to-reorder - Full PTY terminal (custom VT100/xterm emulator, not a shrunken exec wrapper). Function keys, Ctrl combos, UTF-8, alt screen, scroll regions. Writes to SSHJ via a HandlerThread so the transport never gets corrupted - Live charts for CPU/RAM/disk/network/swap/load over SSH - one compound command per tick, so it's one round-trip regardless of metric count - Uptime monitoring (HTTP/HTTPS/TCP/Ping) with Uptime Kuma-style history bars, 24h/30d uptime %, and response time charts - Runbooks: multi-line saved commands with one-tap execution - Background alerts with process-level context ("CPU at 99% - nginx at 45%"). WorkManager under the hood - SSL cert expiry tracking per server - System Health card: pending updates, security updates, reboot required, failed systemd units (works on apt/dnf/pacman) - Home screen widget, biometric lock, encrypted credential storage
