Settings

StormTunnel → Settings (Cmd+,)

StormTunnel uses a native macOS Settings window with six tabs. Select a tab in the window's toolbar; tabs have no dedicated keyboard shortcuts. Each pane groups related controls. Most settings are saved as you change them; connection history preferences are saved when you leave the Advanced pane.

Tabs

Tab Purpose
General Startup, menu bar, SSH keys, notifications
AWS AWS credentials and SSO
License License activation and plan status
Known Hosts SSH host key management
Updates Software update preferences
Advanced Connection history and diagnostics

Version information is available from StormTunnel → About Storm Tunnel.

Data Locations

Data Location
Preferences ~/Library/Containers/in.rs.olujic.StormTunnel/Data/Library/Preferences/
SSH Keys ~/Library/Application Support/in.rs.olujic.StormTunnel/SSH/
Known Hosts ~/Library/Application Support/in.rs.olujic.StormTunnel/known_hosts

Native and CLI SSH use the same Known Hosts file. CLI-only trust from older versions needs re-approval; verify the fingerprint before accepting.
