Sarv Terminal is an open-source, native terminal application for macOS that combines a GPU-accelerated terminal with SSH connection management and file transfer tools. It is designed for users who manage multiple servers and need to keep terminal sessions, host configurations, SSH keys, tunnels, and remote file access together in a single window rather than across separate utilities.

The app includes a saved-host vault with groups, tags, and per-host themes, an SSH key manager for generating and assigning keys, port forwarding and tunnel management, a dual-pane SFTP/SCP file manager, command snippets and searchable shell history, and optional end-to-end-encrypted sync across devices. It can import hosts and settings from existing SSH configs and other terminal applications, and supports serial console connections. Sarv Terminal is built on Ghostty and released under the MIT license.

Sarv Terminal is aimed at developers, network engineers, and system administrators who work with remote servers. It is free and open source, with no paid editions or usage-based tiers. It is currently available for macOS, with a Linux interface noted as in development.
