pairadmin — sblanken@fleet: ~
sblanken@fleet:~$ docker compose up -d
ERROR: for db Cannot start service db: port 5432 is already in use
PairAdmin: something's already bound to 5432. Run `ss -ltnp | grep 5432` to find the culprit, or `docker compose down` first.
sblanken@fleet:~$ ss -ltnp | grep 5432
LISTEN 0 511 0.0.0.0:5432 users:(("postgres",pid=4129,fd=7))
PairAdmin: that's a bare `postgres` on 4129. Kill it (`sudo kill 4129`) or change the compose port.
sblanken@fleet:~$ sudo kill 4129 && docker compose up -d
Why PairAdmin

Built for people who live in a terminal

Four things it does better than anything you're running today — and one assistant that reads along the whole time.

⚡

A real terminal

Not a toy emulator. A full PTY with tabs, scrollback, and every keybind your fingers already know. It feels like home on day one.

AI that read the output

Don't paste the error — it already saw it. Ask "why did that fail?" and get an answer grounded in your actual shell history.

live context · no copy-paste
🌐

Command a fleet

SSH and WinRM into every host from one pane. Saved hosts, saved sessions, zero context-switching between your boxes.

Never retype

Save, name, and rerun the commands that matter. Your best incantations live one keystroke away, forever.
