CLUSTER TERMINAL-SESSION-SHARING · 10 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2019-08-18
Terminal session sharing tools
This cluster comprises command-line and web tools for sharing live terminal sessions, often via short-lived links or peer-to-peer connections, enabling real-time collaboration and file transfer. The dated history is sparse, with entries scattered from 2016 to 2026 and a slight uptick in early 2026. shell-now leads on traction with 48 stars, while other members have minimal activity.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
