Hi @shreyashk09. Your observations are what I'd expect right now. Both kernel startup and communication are synchronous...until recently. jupyter_client (on which notebook sits on which kernel gateway sits) recently added...

What do you mean by _"enable kg"_? And what is your "pwd" test attempting to show - please explain? Kernel Gateway must be running before a notebook configured to use...

The gateway projects (Kernel and Enterprise) are intended to run remotely from the notebook server and, as a result, there's no guarantee that a given path from one server will...

This is an interesting idea but given Kernel Gateway's support load, I don't see this being anything we can take on. Would the idea be to use JSON to send...
