Tramp's sftp integration doesn't support remote processes. So there's no
chance to make it working.

sshfs, as general concept, doesn't allow remote processes either. Tramp
has added this functionality by opening a parallel ssh connection, see
tramp-sshfs.el for its configuration (the lines, where
tramp-sshfs-method is added to tramp-methods). However, it calls remote
commands directly via ssh, like this (according to Tramp traces):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
ssh -q -e none -t -t gandalf cd /home/albinus/src/emacs/ && ( env INSIDE_EMACS\=30.0.50\,tramp\:2.7.0-pre ENV\=\'\' TMOUT\=0 LC_CTYPE\=\'\' CDPATH\= HISTORY\= MAIL\= MAILCHECK\= MAILPATH\= PAGER\=cat autocorrect\= correct\= /bin/sh -c stty\ raw\ \>\ /dev/null\;\ /usr/bin/clangd )
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'm not sure, but likely the snippet "stty\ raw\ \>\ /dev/null\;\ /usr/bin/clangd"
might need another quoting.

Best regards, Michael.
