I don’t know of any way to copy the file directly in one single command, but if you can concede to running an SSH instance in the background to just keep a port forwarding tunnel open, then you could copy the file in one command.

Generally, if you want to download, it will go: # download: remote -> local scp user@remote_host:remote_file local_file where local_file might actually be a directory to put the file you’re copying in.
