Exosphere — Aggregated patch reporting over SSH

Exosphere

A simple, agentless CLI and TUI driven patch reporting application for remote UNIX systems

▾

Comfortable CLI, nice tables, useful TUI. A view of all hosts.

See what needs updating, at a glance, consistently.

You get a consistent view of all package updates, regardless of host platform or package manager, all in one place.

Targeted at small to medium sized networks, and designed to be simple to deploy and use, requiring no central server, remote agents, or complex dependencies installed on the hosts.

If you have SSH access to the hosts and your keypairs are loaded in an SSH agent, you are good to go.
