Remote Development Without Reconnect Friction
Remote development that survives drops, resumes sessions, and removes reconnect babysitting.
Published: 2026-01-04 · Last updated: 2026-01-04
Remote development breaks when reconnects are treated as exceptions. A remote dev workflow should resume cleanly, keep state, and avoid re-running work after every drop.
The real friction
- SSH drops break deep work and long-running tasks.
- State loss forces re-auth, re-run, and re-setup.
- Output gaps make debugging unreliable.
The pain is not latency alone. It is continuity.
What "no reconnect friction" means
- Reconnect resumes the same session, not a new one.
- Output is replayed for the offline window.
- The environment stays stateful across time.
Why this is different from "better SSH"
SSH keeps a connection. It does not guarantee state continuity or output replay. If the session drops or the shell dies, you are still forced to restart.
Remote dev without reconnect friction treats the workspace as the durable unit, not the socket.
