muscat

muscat is a utility to use local machine's clipboard and browser from remote machine. heavily inspired by github.com/lemonade-command/lemonade muscat uses not tcp but unix domain socket to communicate between client and server. you must use ssh remote forwarding of unix domain socket.

Host forward-workbench
  Hostname workbench.remote.local
  RemoteForward /home/<remote_user>/.muscat.socket /Users/<local_user>/.muscat.socket
  ExitOnForwardFailure yes

StreamLocalBindUnlink yes

start server

$ muscat server

copy from stdin

$ echo foobar | muscat copy

paste to stdout

$ muscat paste

open URI with local browser
