GOOD QUESTIONS
Yes. Terminal includes the ssh command. Docklark adds a native graphical workspace for organizing connections and working with multiple sessions.
The public v0.2.103 DMG targets Apple Silicon (arm64). Minimum macOS compatibility and Intel support are not independently confirmed. Check the download notes before installing.
It does not follow bastion menus or nested SSH. Ordinary connections use the SSH entry host; configured managed jump chains use the final authenticated target. Optional same-host directory following is a separate feature.
No. The images are actual captures from installed v0.2.96 using public demo data in both languages and appearances. Screenshots do not certify production file writes, live forwarding or every server environment.
CURRENT PUBLIC RELEASE
This page was checked against installed v0.2.96 (build 106), covering its main screens, monitoring, file browsing, editor previews and settings. Detailed behavior is cross-checked with the application documentation.
Product images were recaptured in the installed app in English and Chinese, in light and dark appearances. They use public demo hosts, files, processes and container data. Full workflows still need real-world acceptance: this review does not certify file writes, container changes, live forwarding, every authentication path or every server.
