I use magic wormhole when I first install a computer to send an SSH key. At that point, I have ssh. Also if you use a mesh VPN, your devices are already connected and there are several ways to transfer files.

I like to use it more. What is your use case for this?

BTW, I haven’t found a good iOS app.



FYI, there's a subcommand just for this use case: `wormhole ssh invite` / `accept`, which will read the SSH pubkey on one end and append it to authorized_keys on the other.


I think you should create a new ssh key for every computer so you only have to share the public key .


If you’re launching machines from a prebaked image or template, it may not be possible to inject/generate something unique for each one, or doing so is finicky to the point that using something like wormhole may be simpler than fighting with your provisioning tool.
