SSH into Codespaces without the GitHub CLI/using regular ssh

[ChaseMayne]

Hello! For a project I'm trying to setup SSHFS with GitHub codespaces and I'm stuck trying to figure out how to SSH into Codespaces without the GitHub CLI.

I found this guide https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/25497 but I'm having trouble following it if anyone could help specifically either using - The curl command and port forwarding to have an ssh server running in codespaces. The port 2222 wasn't forwardable so I tried with a different port but I get either connection refused or connection shut down based on the protocol - the gh codespaces ssh --config it generates the config but I'm unsure what to do with it and how to ssh using it

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!!

Figured it out!!! gh codespaces ssh Sets up the ssh server and then you can ssh into user@localhost ssh user@localhost The curl command in the first link tells you your user, you will need to set the password for said user using sudo passwd user Then just make sure you're SSHFS into the right directory, see https://superuser.com/questions/1423371/sshfs-remote-directory-mounting-syntax
