Terms of Service

OnlyTTY is a relay that pairs a command running on your machine with a browser, forwarding end-to-end-encrypted terminal frames between them. The relay never sees your terminal content — it forwards ciphertext and stores nothing.

The link is a capability

Each session is reached by a link whose #fragment holds the secret. Anyone with the full link is a viewer, and — unless you started the session read-only — can take control and type into it. Treat the link like a password: share it deliberately, use --control view-only or --passphrase when you need to, and stop sharing by exiting the command.

No accounts, ephemeral sessions

There are no accounts. Sessions live in memory only; by default a session lasts as long as you keep it running and is gone the moment you stop it (set --ttl to expire it on a clock instead).

Acceptable use

Your use must follow the Acceptable Use Policy. We may drop sessions or block traffic that abuses the service.

No warranty

OnlyTTY is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind. You use it at your own risk, and to the extent permitted by law we are not liable for any damages arising from its use. If you self-host the open-source relay, you operate it under its license.
