Hello,
That happens when you choose a new IDE backend version. We need the client and backend to be a perfect match, which is why.
If you see this behaviour when using the same IDE backend build, please create an issue with logs in our bug tracker and attach logs. Thank you.
This seems to be the expected behavior of JetBrains Gateway: it downloads the full IDE client (~600MB) onto your local machine for every hctra connection to a remote project (Python, CLion, etc.) unless a compatible cached version is already present. This is because the local client is tailored to the remote IDE version.
