Cursor Remote SSH keeps trying to install GitHub Copilot which results in the remote failing to open after a few tries.

It is the same problem as here —Failed to connect to the remote extension host server (Error: ExtensionInstallFailed(ExtensionInstallFailed("Extension 'github.copilot' not found.\nMake sure you use the full extension ID, including the publisher, e.g.: ms-dotnettools.csharp\nExtension 'github.copilot-chat' not found. · Issue #1516 · getcursor/cursor · GitHub, but I cannot the fix there get to work, because there is no config with GitHub copilot extension anywhere I looked.

This is what is stopping me from using Cursor altogether because I need the remote workflow.
