Hey, it seems you may have the incorrect Remote SSH extension installed - likely imported from VSCode!

Can you try to remove the extension, and reinstall it using the Show Remote Menu command, followed by the Open Remote SSH option?

Hey, just to follow up, I’ve spoke to the team and we our Remote SSH server doesn’t currently support Alpine, which may mean SSH still possibly would not work with the correct SSH extension installed!

I’ll log this down so we can look at adding it in the future.

Thank you! In addition to SSH, will you add the feature for development in containers? Like Dev Containers

DevContainers do work in Cursor, but the compatibility and integration is not as good as we want it to be yet, these are definitely areas we want to improve on in the near future!
