Coder Remote

Visual Studio Marketplace Open VSX Version "Join us on Discord"

The Coder Remote extension connects your editor to Coder workspaces with a single click.

Demo

Features

  • One-click workspace access - open workspaces from the Coder dashboard or the editor sidebar. Workspaces start automatically when opened.
  • Multi-editor support - works with VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and other VS Code forks.
  • Workspace sidebar - browse, search, and create workspaces. View agent metadata and app statuses at a glance.
  • Coder Tasks - create, monitor, and manage AI agent tasks directly from the sidebar with real-time log streaming.
  • Coder Chat - delegate development tasks to AI coding agents from the sidebar. Requires Coder Agents to be enabled on your deployment.
  • Multi-deployment support - connect to multiple Coder deployments and switch between them without losing credentials.
  • Dev container support - open dev containers running inside workspaces.
  • Secure authentication - session tokens stored in the OS keyring (macOS/Windows), with optional OAuth 2.1 support.
  • Air-gapped / restricted networks - no external dependencies beyond your Coder deployment.
  • Automatic SSH tuning - applies recommended SSH settings for reliable long-lived connections and recovers from sleep/wake.

Note

The extension builds on VS Code-provided implementations of SSH. Make sure you have the correct SSH extension installed for your editor (ms-vscode-remote.remote-ssh, anysphere.remote-ssh for Cursor, or codeium.windsurf-remote-openssh for Windsurf).

Getting Started

Launch VS Code Quick Open (Ctrl+P), paste the following command, and press enter.

ext install coder.coder-remote

Alternatively, manually install the VSIX from the latest release.

All extension settings are under the coder.* namespace in the Settings UI. Paths in settings accept ~ and ${userHome} from VS Code's variables reference.
