Feature Request: Save and support copy SSH passphrase

While the SSH integration works well for local interactions, not every situation supports looking up credentials from a local 1password identity, e.g. accessing git over ssh itself on remote servers. And frequent actions require copying the passphrase often

  1. open quick search,
  2. open in 1password,
  3. manually copy the passphrase custom field,
  4. paste, which is immediately purged from the clipboard after
  5. repeat

It would be ideal if the passphrase for an SSH key were included in the default keys, and in the fields that can be copied from quick access.

It sounds like you are not, but should be, using an ssh agent. 1Password provides an agent, which is likely your preferred choice.

Your mention of “ssh itself on remote servers” suggests that you may also want to enable agent forwarding.
