SSH tunnels are brittle
Port forwards die. SFTP is slow. You just want a path.
For developers
A network drive that doesn’t need a VPN.
SSH + rsync scripts get you halfway. Wormhole mounts a remote path over encrypted QUIC with a join code—grep prod logs locally, share model outputs, wire it into CI.
The pain you already know
If this sounds familiar, Wormhole was built for your desk.
Syncthing config tax
Powerful, but device IDs and folders are a fifteen-step ritual.
Don’t put prod in S3
Some data should stay on the box that already has it.
What changes with Wormhole
Share a code. Mount the folder. Keep working.
Mount /var/log or the dataset
Local tooling, remote bytes. Prefetch keeps sequential reads hot.
CLI-first, MCP-ready
Script host/mount/status. Optional MCP server for agent workflows.
Open source MIT
Inspect the protocol. Self-host the signal server. No black box.
Also built for
Same product. Different desks. Pick your lane.
Mount the folder. Skip the upload.
Free core. Open source. End-to-end encrypted.
