mosh
A mobile shell tool released by MIT in 2012, designed for unstable network environments. It uses the UDP-based SSP protocol in place of TCP, supporting automatic reconnection after IP address changes and local predictive echo. The tool has known compatibility limitations with full-screen TUI applications.
Timeline (last 90 days)
mosh was released by MIT in 2012 and was designed specifically for unstable network environments.
mosh replaces the transport layer from TCP with UDP-based SSP (State Synchronization Protocol), using the latest terminal state rather than a byte stream as the synchronization unit.
mosh has long had compatibility issues with full-screen TUI programs that require precise cursor position control (such as vim, htop, and tmux), with screen corruption occurring in some cases.
