Denshin vs Termius
Denshin is not trying to be a universal SSH client.
Termius is a broad SSH client with host management, SFTP, forwarding and polished terminal ergonomics. Denshin is narrower: your terminal and coding agents, supervised as one mobile workflow.
Choose Termius for general SSH administration across many hosts. Choose Denshin when coding agents, durable local sessions and intervention from mobile are the center of the job.

The primary experience
A permanent source of truth beside the optional agent view
You want one local daemon to preserve sessions and expose Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and Pi through honest shared primitives.
