Hey,
I’m migrating to a new Mac. In my old mac I used to connect with the native vscode remote SSH extension (v0.113.1) to remote machines. I initially installed it with earlier cursor version but it worked even with the latest cursor version (v1.1.5).
Same goes for the Python and it’s related extensions.
Now when installing cursor (same version, v1.1.5) on my new Mac, I cannot find the Remote SSH extension in the extensions pane. I read in a different thread that there is the new anysphere extension for remote SSH but I can’t find it in the marketplace as well (even when searching ‘@id:anysphere.remote-ssh’.
Same goes for Python extension, and specifically Pylance, and I can’t find the anysphere extension for python in the marketplace search.
I even tried this search term: publisher:"Anysphere" but it returns an empty search.
Waiting for /home/ec2-user/.cursor-server/vscode-cli-ef5eeb47a684b4c217dfaf0463aa7ea952f8ab90.tar.gz.done and vscode-server.tar.gz to exist

Steps to Reproduce
Specified above
Operating System
MacOS
Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)
I found a workaround: first, use a regular SSH connection to access the target server, then go to the .cursor-server directory and rename the original cursor-xxxxxxxx file to cursor-ef5eeb47a684b4c217dfaf0463aa7ea952f8ab90. After that, I was able to connect successfully.
@ChrisOr – thanks for sharing this, it sounds like a slightly different issue with the CLI download. We’re working on fixing it so that the CLIs are uploaded in the right places.

I’ve verified with my colleagues and they experience the same behaviour.
Maybe this is related to VPN issues somehow?
Can you maybe provide the .vsix files directly of remote ssh and all python extensions?
(You might have to rename the files to end with .vsix for them to load)
Still, confused as to why none of our extensions are showing up – are you signed in, or have you changed the base marketplace URL? The results look like they are coming straight from OpenVSX.
Thanks @ravirahman
we didn’t change anything. this is across all our team members. Perhaps it’s VPN related issue? I can’t verify it because I cannot work on my computer without VPN
