The cursor remote ssh vscode server installer missing for vscode-reh-alpine-arm64.tar.gz

Steps to reproduce the issue:

Upgrade cursor IDE to 0.48.6 on macOS (I think it doesn’t matter, but I’m on macOS)

Now try to run dev container with ARM64 arch
Then I will hit the following error (it works fine on 0.48.6 )

Additional:

When I tried to manually download the link https://cursor.blob.core.windows.net/remote-releases/1649e229afdef8fd1d18ea173f063563f1e722e0/vscode-reh-alpine-arm64.tar.gz, hit 404 BlobNotFound error

Obviously the arm64 server installer is missing in the download server (or has not being built yet?)

I’m running into the same issue with just a regular Alpine Linux installed on an Intel machine. How can we make Cursor work with Alpine? VSCode works…

Hi! Wanted to share that we just added support for Alpine Linux remote hosts.

You will need:

  • Cursor v0.50.5 or greater
  • The latest version of the Anysphere Remote Extension
    • Dev Containers (anysphere.remote-containers) v0.0.12 or greater, or
    • Remote SSH (anysphere.remote-ssh) v0.0.34 or greater
  • Inside your Alpine remote host:
    • bash
    • libstdc++
    • wget
    • openssh (SSH only, not required for docker), with TCP Forwarding enabled (set AllowTCPForwarding yes inside /etc/ssh/sshd_config)

Support for Alpine remote hosts is in beta. Please let us know if you run into any issues with the setup. Thanks!
