Yes you are 100 correct, I mixed up port and agent forwarding, I’ve needed both at different times and last time it was agent forwarding so got confused.

There is another issue for port forwarding https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh/issues/337 but no PR that I’m aware of.

Regarding why it hasn’t been merged, there is a comment on the port forwarding issue which sums it up quite well I think https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh/issues/337#issuecomment...

My understanding is that the maintainers prefer doing one thing well (and securely). Which to be honest is something I really appreciate even if it means I might have to figure out some agent and port forwarding workaround :-/ at least I don’t have to worry about if my version of mosh will work with whatever the server runs
