What is Tuxee?
Tuxee is a Linux workspace that combines file management and persistent terminals in a web interface. It is intended for system administrators and users running AI agents. The README describes it as a tiny Debian Linux container with a web interface for files and persistent terminals, also available as a standalone web interface for existing Linux servers.
The container image is based on Debian slim. It runs headless with the web interface exposed automatically, and users log in with a Linux user account. Because terminal sessions remain available after logout, the README says server files and terminals stay reachable and do not die when you log out. Tuxee is aimed at system administrators and people running agents.
The interface includes workspace tabs, windows that can be dragged and resized with grid snapping, and automatic layouts that prioritize terminals or file browsers. Files can be dragged between windows to move or copy them, pasted as paths into terminals, or dragged in from the local computer to upload them. A built-in file editor offers syntax highlighting and large file support, and a built-in media viewer is included.
The recommended setup is the Docker image, started with a single docker run command and a root password. Alternatively an install script sets it up directly on an existing Linux server. The project is distributed under the MIT license.
Key capabilities
- Persistent terminals Keep terminal sessions available after logging out of the web interface.
- File management Move or copy files between windows and upload files from a local computer.
- Terminal file handoff Drop files into terminals or insert their paths for command-line and agent workflows.
- Workspace organization Arrange terminals and file browsers with tabs, resizable windows, grid snapping and automatic layouts.
- Editing and viewing Edit files with syntax highlighting and large-file support, and inspect media in a built-in viewer.
- Deployment options Run a Debian-based Docker container or install the web interface on an existing Linux server.
Where Tuxee fits
Tuxee fits browser-based server administration and agent workflows that need access to Linux files and persistent shell sessions. Its file handling can help users upload material for agents and move between file browsing and terminal work within the same workspace.
Before deployment, administrators should review storage persistence, exposed ports, Linux account access and password provisioning. The repository points to Docker setup guidance for persistence and alternate ports, and describes operation behind an HTTPS proxy. Detailed access-control and API capabilities are not established by the supplied page.
