docs: add OpenChamber feature docs and translations (#1400)

* docs: add OpenChamber feature docs and translations

Add 30 new docs pages covering OpenChamber-specific workflows and setup:
OpenCode server, providers/models/agents, MCP, skills, commands & snippets,
usage, projects, context, notes/todos/plans, scheduled tasks, project actions,
preview, worktrees, multi-run, git & GitHub, magic prompts, git identities,
mobile/PWA, security, notifications, voice, project icons, remote instances,
desktop browser, updates, and three troubleshooting pages.

Rebuild sidebar into eight task-oriented sections and translate every new
page into all six supported locales (uk, zh-cn, es, pt-br, ko, pl).

* docs: surface new sections on homepage and cross-link tunnels

Add an Explore block to the docs homepage (all seven locales) linking to
the new section anchors, and cross-link the Tunnels page to Security and
PWA & Mobile.

title: Remote Instances
description: Connect the desktop app to OpenChamber on another machine over SSH.
---
# Remote Instances
The desktop app can connect to OpenChamber running on another machine over SSH — a work server, a cloud box, a homelab — and bring its UI to your screen as if it were local. Set this up at **Settings → Remote Instances**.
> Remote instances are a **desktop-only** feature. On the web or in VS Code, connect to a remote server with the environment variables in [OpenCode Server](/opencode-server/) instead.
## Add a remote instance
1. Open **Settings → Remote Instances** and add one.
2. Give it the SSH command you'd normally use to reach the machine, plus a nickname.
3. Choose how OpenChamber runs there:
- **managed** — OpenChamber installs and starts itself on the remote machine
- **external** — connect to one that's already running
4. Connect.
OpenChamber walks through the steps — checking the connection, setting up the remote, starting the server, and forwarding the port — and shows where it is at each stage. When it reaches **ready**, the remote UI loads locally.
## Credentials
You decide whether to save the SSH and UI passwords or enter them each time. If the connection drops, OpenChamber reports which step failed so you can fix it — see [Remote access](/troubleshooting/remote-access/).
