Does cursor support Remote SSH?

Discussion
1

A critical feature that I use on VSCode is Remote SSH. It is one feature that would prevent me from trying another IDE if the other IDE doesn’t support it. Does cursor currently have support for Remote SSH, or plan on it in the future?

thanks.

Yes, Cursor has remote-ssh capabilities. Same menu as VS Code and config file concepts.

I use remote ssh in cursor extensively. Note its their own implementation and does not rely on the VSCode Remote SSH extension. I also use Devcontainers extensively which also works well in cursor now.

Why my mac 0.45 cursor shows Could not establish connection to "A6000": Failed to download VS Code Server (Server returned 404). Could not establish connectionto "A6000":Remote-SSH is only supported inMicrosoft versions of Vs Code.

Try removing and reinstalling the Remote-SSH extension from the Cursor marketplace - this should get you our version instead of VS Code’s. Make sure to close any active SSH connections and restart Cursor after
