Overview

This PR updates the SSH extension documentation to describe the remote server architecture, supported hosts, and additional coding features available over SSH. The overall direction is useful, but two changed claims need correction before publishing because they create privacy-sensitive or contradictory guidance.

Concerns

  • The remote code review section says AI-generated commit messages and PR descriptions are produced on the remote host so large diffs never leave the machine, while the same page says account-backed AI features require the remote server to reach Warp's servers over HTTPS. Clarify what data leaves the remote host or remove the unsupported privacy claim.
  • The new Codebase Context over SSH claim conflicts with the linked Codebase Context page, which still says semantic indexing is not available in SSH sessions.

Security

  • The AI-generated Git metadata wording could mislead users about whether repository diffs leave the remote host for account-backed AI features.

* **File tree (Project Explorer)** - The left panel reflects the remote project's structure and updates as you `cd` between directories or change files. See [File Tree](/code/code-editor/file-tree/).
* **Reliable completions and autosuggestions** - Generators run in parallel over a single multiplexed connection instead of opening a new SSH session per command, so completions stop hitting the remote host's `MaxSessions` ceiling and stop occasionally injecting errors into your blocks.
* **Code editor on remote files** - Open remote files in Warp's [code editor](/code/code-editor/) from the file tree or the Command Palette, edit them, and save back to the remote host. Warp keeps the buffer in sync with the remote file and surfaces a conflict resolution prompt if the file changes on disk while you have unsaved edits.
* **Code review and git operations** - The [code review panel](/code/code-review/) works on remote repositories, including reviewing diffs, discarding files, committing, pushing, and creating PRs. AI-generated commit messages and PR descriptions are produced on the remote host, so large diffs never leave the machine.

⚠️ [IMPORTANT] [SECURITY] This privacy claim conflicts with the later note that account-backed features such as AI-generated commit messages require HTTPS access to Warp's servers. Remove "so large diffs never leave the machine" or clarify exactly what data leaves the remote host for AI generation.
