codex - 💡(How to fix) Fix Allow remote connection providers to create/select hosts in Add remote project [1 participants]

TL;DR

Add an extension point to the Add remote project dialog to allow plugins/providers to manage remote workspaces and SSH host aliases.

Guidance

• Identify the current limitations of the Add remote project dialog in handling dynamic SSH host creation.
• Explore the feasibility of introducing an extension point for plugins/providers to integrate with the dialog.
• Consider the proposed alternative of using a deep link (codex://remote-project?host=<ssh-alias>&path=<remote-path>) as a potential workaround.
• Evaluate the requirements for listing available remote workspaces, creating new ones, and updating SSH host aliases.

Notes

The issue lacks specific technical details, so a comprehensive solution cannot be provided. However, the proposed extension point and deep link alternative offer potential avenues for exploration.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Introduce an extension point or explore the deep link alternative, as these approaches may provide a more flexible and dynamic solution for managing remote workspaces and SSH host aliases.
