Agent AI and ssh

Bug Reports
1

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Background Agent (GitHub, Slack, Web, Linear)

Describe the Bug

The two servers are completely different. After connecting via SSH, the agent stops working entirely. Apparently, this problem has existed for many months—possibly over a year—but nobody is doing anything about it. Good luck to them in the competitive market… It’s simply unusable at this point.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create an SSH connection to Linux.
  2. Try using the agent.

Operating System

Linux

Hi @Aleksandr_Shaman, can you share a screencast of what is happening and a request ID for an agent that fails so we can take a closer look?
