Navop

This is a community package of Navop, maintained independently. It repackages the official upstream Linux build unmodified.

Navop is a native desktop workspace that puts database clients, SSH and SFTP sessions, terminals, remote desktop, host monitoring, notes and AI assistance in one window.

• Database clients for MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, DuckDB, MongoDB, Redis, ClickHouse, SQL Server, Oracle and more, with table compare and ER diagrams
• SSH and SFTP sessions with a remote file editor and session recording
• Terminals, port forwarding and remote desktop
• Host monitoring, Markdown notes and AI assistance with your own provider key

The package is fully sandboxed: it can reach the network and its own data directory, and nothing else. Files are opened through the file-chooser portal, and databases, SSH servers and remote desktops are reached over TCP — including services on the host at 127.0.0.1.

A few optional capabilities are not granted by default; enable the ones you need with "flatpak override":

• Reuse your existing host SSH keys and known_hosts: flatpak override --user --filesystem=~/.ssh:ro dev.navop.Navop
• Browse local files in the SFTP pane, or open a SQLite/DuckDB file by typing its path: flatpak override --user --filesystem=home dev.navop.Navop (or name a single directory instead of home)
• Serial-port connections: flatpak override --user --device=all dev.navop.Navop
• A database that listens on a Unix socket rather than TCP: flatpak override --user --filesystem=/run/postgresql:ro dev.navop.Navop

Two things behave differently inside the sandbox: the built-in local terminal runs the shell from the Flatpak runtime rather than your host shell, and in-app updates cannot replace the packaged build — new upstream releases arrive as Flatpak updates instead.
