Remote ssh connection only support vscode < 1.97, I use cursor==1.1.7 before, but recently, chat is forbidden, which cursor is available for agent?
error log:
Please update to the latest version of Cursor at
to continue using the Agent

It looks like you’ve run into a conflict between an old Cursor version (1.1.7) and the current Agent requirements. Version 1.1.7 is too old to use Agent.
A few questions so I can understand the situation:
Why do you have a restriction on VS Code < 1.97? Which extension or server requires that?
Which version of the Remote SSH extension are you using?
Have you tried using the Anysphere Remote SSH extension instead of the standard Microsoft Remote SSH?
Anysphere Remote SSH may work differently and get around your restriction. To install it:
Uninstall the Microsoft Remote SSH extension
Install Anysphere Remote SSH from the Marketplace
Restart Cursor
For newer Cursor versions, the latest releases are based on VS Code 1.97+, so if you have a hard limit on VS Code < 1.97, that creates a problem.
