The remote docker containers "Failed to connect. Is Docker running?", but the Images can be connect and show correctly.

Local:

I have read these two issue, but it seems not work to me.

Additionaly, I have seen this answer #3111 (comment), but I don't know how to apply it in my problem.

I am also having the same issue on MacOS with the VSCode Docker Extension...

docker context use remote works in Terminal but the extension refuses to connect to the remote host/context.

I am also having the same issue, and it seems it's because I have moved my SSH keys to 1Password (https://developer.1password.com/docs/ssh/get-started#step-3-turn-on-the-1password-ssh-agent) and added this line to ~/.ssh/config

Host *
  IdentityAgent "~/Library/Group Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock"

If I remove this line, all works correctly. Running docker ps from command line works fine, but it asks me to authenticate to use my SSH key.

@majksner It sounds like what you're seeing might be solved by #3263. Currently we use the dockerode NPM package, which in turn uses ssh2 to deal with communicating with a Docker host over SSH. Unfortunately, ssh2 has a hard requirement on using SSH agent auth; in theory 1Password should work with its agent but there are a lot of variables. With #3263, we're looking at switching to using the CLI only; no more dockerode. This way, as long as the CLI is working, the extension should work fine too.
