SSH Config Profile Builder

Writing long, repetitive ssh connection commands manually is tedious. SSH supports a powerful configuration engine via ~/.ssh/config that lets you define shorthand host profiles.

Use this interactive config builder to configure profiles (including ProxyJumps and keepalives) and copy your config blocks instantly.

--- ### Why Use SSH Config? * **Shorthand Connections:** Instead of writing `ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 -p 2202 ubuntu@10.0.4.15`, you can configure the profile and run `ssh webserver`. * **Security (ProxyJump):** Access private internal databases behind a firewalled bastion by typing a single jump command, routing traffic safely. * **KeepAlives:** By default, SSH drops inactive connections. Enabling `ServerAliveInterval` sends a heartbeat every 60 seconds to keep your shell active.
