SSH access

On the Pro plan, you can open a direct SSH connection to your project and work in a shell from your own terminal. On the Free and Maker plans SSH isn’t available — the panel shows an option to upgrade — and you make changes through AI Assist instead.

Enable SSH

You connect with an SSH key pair: you keep the private key, and livemy.app installs your public key on the project.

1. Open your project and go to SSH access.

2. Paste your public SSH key — OpenSSH format, for example an ed25519 key that starts with ssh-ed25519 ….

3. Select Enable SSH.

Don’t have a key yet? Generate one locally, then print the public half and paste it into the panel:

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "you@email"   # press Enter through the prompts
cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub              # copy this line

Keep your private key private

Only ever paste the public key (the .pub file). Never share the private key — the file without the .pub suffix.

Connect

Once SSH is enabled, the panel shows your key fingerprint and a ready-to-copy connection command:

ssh <user>@<host> -p <port>

Copy it and run it in your terminal to open a shell on your project.

Rotate or revoke

From the same panel you can:

• Rotate key — replace the installed public key with a new one. Paste the new key and confirm; the old key stops working.
• Revoke — remove SSH access from the project entirely.
