── inference.net ssh bridge ──

Chat with any inference.net model straight from your terminal. The SSH username is the model id and your API key is the password.

quick start

$ ssh kimi-k3@ssh.inference.cool
password: <your sk-inference-… API key>

Or skip the prompt by embedding the key in the username:

$ ssh "kimi-k3:$INFERENCE_API_KEY@ssh.inference.cool"

Any model id from api.inference.net/v1/models works as the username — ssh in with a wrong one and the bridge lists what's available. Create API keys in the inference.net dashboard.
