TODO list

App:

• feature: open vscode remote ssh
• feature: ssh-copy-id, should be a separate command or in create?
• feature: connect vpn
• feature: transfer existing keys in .ssh to hosts.yaml

Devops:

• automate release tagging
  • write a script/Makefile? or explore alternatives
  • should tag the commit and push with version
  • manage versioning in the codebase (in /internal/constants, .github/workflows and .goreleaser.yaml)
