dirless-connect

End-user CLI for Dirless — obtain short-lived SSH certificates without managing authorized_keys.

Install

Download the latest static binary for your architecture from Releases and place it in your PATH:

# Linux x86_64
curl -Lo /usr/local/bin/dirless-connect \
  https://github.com/dirless/dirless-connect/releases/latest/download/dirless-connect-x86_64
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/dirless-connect

Usage

# One-time setup: generate a keypair and verify your identity via magic link
dirless-connect ssh register

# Daily: obtain a fresh SSH certificate (valid for your org's configured TTL)
dirless-connect ssh login

# Then connect normally — the certificate is picked up automatically
ssh username@hostname
