Hello, every time I try to use the secure copy integration (command + click on a file to download), iTerm prompts me to authenticate with my password two times.

Is there a way to remember password/authentication?

Thanks,

Alejandro

You could set up ~/.ssh/config to use certificate-based auth, or you could set up an ssh agent so you only need to authenticate once.
