Error connecting to agent: No such file or directory

I just saw the post & beta for SSH + CLI integration and this seems amazing. +1 Cant wait for the final release.

However, I'm unable to get this working at all.
* I also use a shell called fishshell for what it's worth. (fish, version 3.3.1, but I do not believe this is part of the issue, as I swapped to bash too, and experience the same issue)
* I have installed OpenSSH (OpenSSH_8.6p1)
* 1P CLI is on version 2.0.0

I've run both the "configuration" commands per the docs.

I've created the symlink using
mkdir -p ~/.1password && ln -s ~/Library/Group\ Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock ~/.1password/agent.sock

...and added the additional line to the ssh config
Host * IdentityAgent "~/.1password/agent.sock" IdentitiesOnly yes

I also added the SSH_AUTH_SOCK to my profile, even tried the global config from https://developer.1password.com/docs/ssh/agent/compatibility#configure-ssh_auth_sock-globally-for-every-client

I've check that I have all the requirements.
* Private vault
* New Key generated via 1Password
* Not archived

But when I run
ssh-add -l
I keep getting a response of Error connecting to agent: No such file or directory, and also any github cli interactions refuses to connect, but I believe its all caused by one in the same issue

Any ideas of what I might be missing?

Good to hear that the No such file or directory issue got solved! Now you're properly connected to the agent, but the next problem is that the agent doesn't list the keys you've created.

We just detected a flaw in the docs that creates some confusion about the vault name, see this comment. So could you try moving the keys to your Personal vault and run ssh-add -l or ssh -o 'IdentitiesOnly=no' -T git@github.com again?

Update, not sure if this could be relevant. I also looked in the log files per a comment in another post and saw this error.

ERROR 2022-03-18T08:19:53.809 ThreadId(17) [1P:ssh/op-ssh-config/src/lib.rs:128] Could not open ssh config file in ~/.ssh/config ERROR 2022-03-18T08:20:05.570 ThreadId(17) [1P:ssh/op-ssh-config/src/lib.rs:128] Could not open ssh config file in ~/.ssh/config

And here are the 2 relevant vault's details from op vault get <vault_name>

```

I did mess around with some additional setting sin my fish_config file and just redid the whole setup from the ground up.

I updated my fish_config to contain this (previously it was wrapped in quotes)
set SSH_AUTH_SOCK ~/.1password/agent.sock

I now receive an error similar to the other questions on here.
The agent has no identities.

I did not have a Private named vault. Mine was called Personal. I did however create a new one called Private but that did not seem to help.

With regards to the above:
Output of ls -l $SSH_AUTH_SOCK

Also for what its worth... my .ssh/config not looks like this
```
Host *
IgnoreUnknown UseKeychain
IdentitiesOnly yes
IdentityAgent ~/.1password/agent.sock
AddKeysToAgent yes
UseKeychain yes

And could share the output of: ls -l $SSH_AUTH_SOCK

And could you try: ssh -o 'IdentitiesOnly=no' -T git@github.com
If that doesn't work, could you share your output of: ssh -o 'IdentitiesOnly=no' -vT git@github.com
