User guide
Feature-by-feature walkthroughs for things you’ll use during normal day-to-day editing — once you’re past the install and first connect steps.
Pages
| Page | What it covers |
|---|---|
| SSH config import | Auto-populate a profile from an existing ~/.ssh/config Host block |
| Jump hosts | Single jump-host config (multi-hop tracked separately) |
| Host-key trust UI | The first-connect trust dialog + how to handle a changed host key |
| Conflict handling | mtime-precondition writes, what happens when two clients race, and the missing automatic backup-on-overwrite caveat |
| Terminal pane | The xterm.js panel for opening a shell on the remote host |
| Plugin compatibility | Which Obsidian community plugins work cleanly + the known sharp edges (Dataview, Templater, Excalidraw…) |
Reading order
There’s no required order. Read as you encounter the feature. The one page worth reading before you need it is Conflict handling — it documents an unforgiving UX surface (no automatic backup of the rejected side) that’s better understood in advance than discovered mid-edit.
