About

FDA replaces standing SSH access to machines with temporary, session-scoped access for AI agents: an agent requests access, works under limited permissions with an audit log, and the access disappears once the session ends. It's built specifically for autonomous agents rather than human operators, so there's no persistent credential left behind for an agent (or anything that compromises it) to reuse later.

At a glance

FDA’s linked tyd project provides remotely attachable shell sessions through paired machines. It is worth reading if an agent needs time-limited access and you want to understand how session creation and teardown work.

Good fit

Operators evaluating remote agent access on disposable machines under their control.

Consider something else when

Use your existing access broker if you need verified policy enforcement and credential revocation across production hosts.

Start here

Read the session lifecycle and use a test pair. Run a harmless command, detach, then explicitly close the session and verify that access ends.

Cost and requirements

The linked repository documents an Apache-2.0 daemon and CLI with a pairing step.

Limits to know

Detaching leaves the remote shell running according to the linked repository. Treat pairing, permissions and session close as separate controls.
