SSH: The agent has no identities. (Searched the community first.)
Firstly, my SSH keys are in my Family → Personal vault. (I know that a lot of previous posts missed this.)
I'm attempting to follow https://1password.community/discussion/comment/646874/#Comment_646874 from floris_1P, and am getting the following result (linebreaks added for clarity):
```
$ export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=~/Library/Group\ Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock
$ echo $SSH_AUTH_SOCK
/Users/ryan_parman/Library/Group Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock

The agent has no identities.
```
Common stuff like git push
and git pull
work correctly, with 1Password prompting me to authorize.
And this is my SSH config.
```
$ cat ~/.ssh/config
Host *
AddKeysToAgent yes
ControlMaster auto
ControlPath /tmp/%r@%h:%p
ControlPersist 600
IdentityAgent "~/Library/Group Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock"
Host 10.* *.ec2.internal
PreferredAuthentications publickey
StrictHostKeyChecking no
```
Any ideas?

Thanks, @MartonS1P , floris_1P , for your answer.
Yesterday, I managed to solve the issue by doing a clean install of 1P, as1Password_rCURRENT.log
wasn't verbose enough either for me to keep investigating.After that,
ssh-add -l
started working smoothly:
ssh-add -l

floris_1P , it happened to me both on Docker and ordinary terminal, and yes, they are placed on my Personal Vault.
What I've noticed though is that setting the symlink on the.ssh/config
does not work, and have to use the absolute path to the socket:
Host *
IdentityAgent "~/Library/Group Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock"
#IdentityAgent ~/.1password/agent.sock # <--- this does not work, no matter if single-or-double-quoted or not
[... other ssh config ...]
Maybe that's normal for.ssh/config
syntax, I am not that expert on ssh. - floris_1P

Did I do something wrong in my original post?
Ryan_Parman Just the shell export alone doesn't do the trick. The socket needs to be passed down to the Docker for Mac app. Either using the
open
command or usinglaunchctl
, as described here. - Former Member
Hey dmbuil and Ryan_Parman.
Make sure you update to the latest version of the app. If the issue still occurs, could you try reproducing it by running an ssh command and checking the logs of the 1Password app? You can find the logs under "Help" -> "Troubleshooting" -> "Open Logs folder" -> "1Password_rCURRENT.log".
If you see any logs related to ssh, please let me know. These logs will help us identify the issue you're encountering.

Thing is, the same is happening to me as well; out of the blue, the SSH agent integration stopped working.
I do have Git Signing & Auth keys, and none of them are recognized when I do assh-add -l
.
A couple of days ago, I could sign and log into GitHub smoothly. (I don't have an SSH-ready server as of now to check whether the key-based login is working).
I have 1Password for Mac 8.10.7 (81007001) and MacOS 12.6.3 (21G419). - Ryan_ParmanDedicated Contributor
