Created: 2026-05-29T13:55:47Z - current status: new¶

Anonymized Summary: A user reports persistent issues connecting to Maxwell via VS Code SSH. The error occurs without recent extension changes.

Summary: The user has encountered an unresolved error while attempting to connect to Maxwell using VS Code’s Remote-SSH feature. Despite no recent modifications to extensions, the connection fails repeatedly.

Possible Solution/Next Step: - Verify SSH configuration: Check ~/.ssh/config for correct host settings (hostname, port, username). - Test basic SSH connectivity outside VS Code (via terminal) to isolate whether the issue lies with VS Code or the server. - Review VS Code logs (Help > Toggle Developer Tools) for specific error messages. - Ensure the Remote-SSH extension is up-to-date; reinstall if necessary. - Confirm Maxwell’s SSH service status and firewall rules allow connections.
