The Problem I'm Facing

So I've been working with Coder and DigitalOcean templates, and honestly, it's getting pretty frustrating having to SSH into the server every single time I need to set up environment variables like DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN.

Here's what I have to do right now:

• SSH into the Coder server (assuming I even have SSH access)
• Manually export the environment variables
• Do this over and over whenever something needs updating

It's really tedious, especially when you're managing multiple deployments or need to quickly update a token.

What I'm Asking For

It would be amazing if we could have a web terminal built right into the Coder UI - but just for admins, of course. Think about it - we could just:

• Pop open the Coder web interface
• Click on a terminal option (with proper auth, obviously)
• Run our commands right there in the browser
• No more juggling SSH keys or terminal windows

Real Example

Like, right now when I'm setting up DigitalOcean workspaces, I have to:

ssh admin@coder-server
export DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN="your-token"

But what if I could just do this directly in Coder's web UI? Would save so much time.

Why This Matters

Look, I know I'm not the only one dealing with this. Anyone using cloud providers (DO, AWS, GCP, whatever) has to constantly update tokens and secrets. And some of us work in places where getting SSH access is a whole process. Plus, when you're managing multiple Coder instances, having to SSH into each one just to update a token... it adds up.

Not everyone has easy SSH access all the time - sometimes you're on a different machine, behind a firewall, or just don't have your keys handy.

Would really appreciate if this could be considered. Thanks!
