[FEATURE]: WSL support connection and SSH forwarding
Feature hasn't been suggested before.
- [x] I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.
Describe the enhancement you want to request
Doing a trial run and want to connect to WSL through the desktop app and having the ability to connect to remote containers would make a huge difference. If I can show promise with this tool given that I'm stuck with Copilot Enterprise or Bedrock(not happening), I can see if others in the organization would adopt this. This is a very cool tool where you're only limited to as fast as you can think. This shows a lot of promise. This is the ultimate vendor lock destroyer.

Leaving this open until someone responds, we are looking to adopt AI tools.
