If you're looking to use 1Password SSH agent commit signing on a device when accessed locally as well as remotely, your best bet is to ensure that $SSH_AUTH_SOCK
is set to your forwarded agent socket when SSH'd into that device, and then the 1Password SSH agent socket when you're using it in person.
SSH signing by default uses the agent pointed to by $SSH_AUTH_SOCK
. and setting op-ssh-sign
as the SSH program overrides that function.
