What is the ThinRemote CLI?

A lightweight command-line tool that provides secure terminal access to all your remote devices

Remote Shell Access

Open Terminal sessions to any device instantly. No exposed ports, no VPN setup, just pure terminal access through secure tunnels.

Cloud Service Exposure

Expose internal services through secure cloud endpoints. Share access with your team without complex VPN setups or firewall configurations.

Built-in MCP Server

Plug Claude, Cursor or any AI agent into the CLI and let it list devices, run commands, tail logs or open tunnels in natural language, with the same access controls as your team.

Device Management

Check device status, execute remote commands, trigger reboots, and manage entire fleets from your terminal.

Scriptable & Automatable

Perfect for CI/CD pipelines, monitoring scripts, and batch operations. Standard input/output for easy integration.

End-to-end encryption, token-based authentication, and audit logging. No open ports or attack surface on your devices.
