There was a problem hiding this comment.
LGTM, should we mention windsurf in the comments like devin/windsurf? Since they seem to be using the old SSH extension name anyway 🤔

Can you suggest that as a change on the PR? |

Windsurf rebranded to Devin Desktop in June 2026. Updates user-facing prose and code comments to reflect the current name while preserving functional identifiers that did not change: - codeium.windsurf-remote-openssh stays the Remote-SSH extension ID; Devin Desktop still ships it. - remote.devinSSH.configFile / remote.windsurfSSH.configFile handling is unchanged, since both settings namespaces exist across editor versions. - CHANGELOG.md history is untouched. Test fixtures that stood in for a generic foreign editor (WINDSURF_AUTHORITY, WINDSURF_REMOTE_AUTHORITY) are renamed to Devin equivalents; they don't test Windsurf-specific behavior.

Windsurf rebranded to Devin Desktop in June 2026. This updates user-facing prose and code comments in this repo to reflect the current name.
Changes
README.md/CONTRIBUTING.md: "Windsurf" mentions and the examplewindsurf://URI scheme updated to Devin Desktop /devin://.src/util.ts,src/extension.ts,src/remote/sshProcess.ts,src/supportBundle/remoteServerDataPath.ts: product name references updated.test/unit/util.test.ts,test/unit/util/authority.test.ts,test/unit/remote/remote.test.ts: cosmetic test label/fixture renames only (WINDSURF_AUTHORITY→DEVIN_AUTHORITY, etc.); these were generic "foreign editor" placeholders, not Windsurf-specific test cases, so no assertions changed.Deliberately unchanged (functional/compat identifiers)
codeium.windsurf-remote-openssh— still the actual Remote-SSH extension ID Devin Desktop ships under; confirmed both against Devin Desktop's own docs and by hands-on testing.remote.devinSSH.configFile/remote.windsurfSSH.configFilehandling insshExtension.ts— both settings namespaces exist across editor versions and are both ignored on purpose.CHANGELOG.md— historical entries are left as-is.Validation
pnpm typecheckpnpm lintpnpm format:checkpnpm test(156 files, 2438 tests passed, 1 pre-existing skip)codeium.windsurf-remote-opensshis detected and SSH connections to a Coder workspace succeed, and thedevin://coder.coder-remote/open?...deep link opens the workspace correctly.
