feat: add SSH connection history with Ctrl+H navigation

Track SSH connections (configured + manual) with searchable history view.
Press Ctrl+H to view history, Ctrl+L to return. Add manual connections
to config with 'a'.

- Parse and store manual SSH connections
- History TUI with search and filtering
- Connection count and timestamps

-### Shell Completion
-
-SSHM supports shell completion for host names, making it easy to connect to hosts without typing full names:
-
-```bash
-sshm <TAB>           # Lists all available hosts
-sshm pro<TAB>        # Completes to hosts starting with "pro" (e.g., prod-server)
-```
-
-**Setup Instructions:**
-
-**Bash:**
-```bash
-# Enable for current session
-source <(sshm completion bash)
-
-# Enable permanently (add to ~/.bashrc)
-echo 'source <(sshm completion bash)' >> ~/.bashrc
-```
-
-**Zsh:**
-```bash
-# Enable for current session
-source <(sshm completion zsh)
-
-# Enable permanently (add to ~/.zshrc)
-echo 'source <(sshm completion zsh)' >> ~/.zshrc
-```
-
-**Fish:**
-```bash
-# Enable for current session
-sshm completion fish | source
-
-# Enable permanently
-sshm completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/sshm.fish
-```
-
-**PowerShell:**
-```powershell
-# Enable for current session
-sshm completion powershell | Out-String | Invoke-Expression
-
-# Enable permanently (add to your PowerShell profile)
-Add-Content $PROFILE 'sshm completion powershell | Out-String | Invoke-Expression'

-### Remote Command Execution
+### Connection History
 
-Execute commands on remote hosts without opening an interactive shell:
+SSHM automatically tracks all your SSH connections, including both configured hosts and manual connections made outside of SSHM.
 
-```bash
-# Execute a single command
-sshm prod-server uptime
-
-# Execute command with arguments
-sshm prod-server ls -la /var/log
-
-# Check disk usage
-sshm prod-server df -h
-
-# View logs (pipe to local commands)
-sshm prod-server 'cat /var/log/nginx/access.log' | grep 404
-
-# Force TTY allocation for interactive commands (sudo, vim, etc.)
-sshm -t prod-server sudo systemctl restart nginx
-```
+**Access History:**
+Press `Ctrl+H` from the main interface to switch to the history view. Press `Ctrl+L` to return to the main host list.
 
 **Features:**
-- **Exit code propagation** - Remote command exit codes are passed through
-- **TTY support** - Use `-t` flag for commands requiring terminal interaction
-- **Pipe-friendly** - Output can be piped to local commands for processing
-- **History tracking** - Command executions are recorded in connection history
+- **Automatic tracking** - Records all SSH connections with timestamps and connection counts
+- **Manual connection detection** - Captures `ssh user@host -p port -i key` commands made in your terminal
+- **Visual indicators** - Manual connections (not in your SSH config) are marked with ★
+- **Search & filter** - Find connections quickly using the search bar
+- **Add to config** - Press `a` on any manual connection (★) to add it to your SSH config
+- **Persistent storage** - History is saved in `~/.config/sshm/sshm_history.json`
+
+**Tracked Information:**
+- Host name or hostname for manual connections
+- Username and hostname
+- Port number
+- Last connection timestamp
+- Total connection count
+
+**Use Cases:**
+- Review your recent SSH activity
+- Find frequently used manual connections
+- Promote manual connections to permanent SSH config entries
+- Track when you last connected to a host
+
+**Example Workflow:**
+```bash
+# Make a manual SSH connection
+ssh deploy@192.168.1.100 -p 2222 -i ~/.ssh/custom_key
+
+# Launch SSHM and press Ctrl+H to view history
+sshm
+# Press Ctrl+H → see the manual connection with ★ indicator
+# Press 'a' to add it to your SSH config
+# Give it a name like "deploy-server" and save
+# Press Ctrl+L to return to main list → now it's a configured host
+```

 Main usage:
   Running 'sshm' (without arguments) opens the interactive TUI window to browse, search, and connect to your SSH hosts graphically.
   Running 'sshm <host>' connects directly to the specified host and records the connection in your history.
-  Running 'sshm <host> <command>' executes the command on the remote host and returns the output.
 
 You can also use sshm in CLI mode for other operations like adding, editing, or searching hosts.
