VS Code keeps disconnecting if the client device sleeps

[matifali]

Hi Team! When using Cursor/VSCode desktop, whenever we close and reopen laptop even for a few seconds, we see a popup Cannot reconnect. Please reload the window. I was wondering if this is expected behavior and if you might be aware of some settings that would make VSCode reconnect more smoothly? I tried changing connect timeout and max reconnection attempts so far but didn't see a difference.

VSCode connection often disconnects even for a slight network issue or if the device sleeps. I am unsure if this is caused by how VSCode handles remote connections as coder ssh <workspace> survives device sleep.

It is possible that #420 may have solved this issue. @bcpeinhardt said he's going to try to see if he can repro and confirm if this change fixes things.

@bpmct curious why this is marked as blocked?

Leaving as todo in Bugs Board because it doesn't seem to have a Blocked status available.

@matifali told me we are are unable to reproduce and waiting on a user. If we are able to repro, this feel pretty important so don't mean to arbitrarily "block" anything
