Landing page captured for the 2026-10-17 issue.
For
People running long jobs from a terminal or SSH session
Worth noticing
The optional nf command is described as preserving the exit code while ignoring hangups; the page lists common codes, including 137 for SIGKILL.

Field notes

The page documents separate browser, streaming, plain-text, and JSON status views for a job link. It also presents nf as an optional shell command that keeps output in the terminal unless run quietly and reports the process exit code. Retention is limited to 24 hours after exit and 16 MB per job; the page explicitly warns against sending secrets.
