Launching from SSH in script not using cwd=current properly

[Halmela]

Hi!

I am writing a script for connecting to a remote host using SSH kitten and opening relevant programs on separate windows using kitten @ launch.

Minimal example:

dev_kitty="unix:/tmp/kitty_dev"
kitty -o allow_remote_control=yes --listen-on $dev_kitty  &
sleep 1
kitten @ --to $dev_kitty kitten ssh remotehost
sleep 2
kitten @ --to $dev_kitty launch --cwd=current

launch from last line creates a new window in local host's current directory instead of remotehost.

Should I modify the script so that the new window also creates it's own SSH connection or is there any convenient way to reuse the same connection?

This behavior works as expected when I do not connect to SSH from a script.

I am using kitty 0.42.2 on Ubuntu.

Ah of course.

Thanks for the help!
