🔐 SSH & Git Signing (1Password Method)

We use 1Password to manage SSH keys. This keeps private keys off the disk and allows Touch ID authorization.

1. Enable SSH Agent

  1. Open 1Password Settings > Developer.
  2. Enable "Use the SSH agent".

2. Create Key

  1. In 1Password: New Item > SSH Key.
  2. Title: "GitHub Auth".
  3. Save.

3. Configure Environment

This is handled automatically by the Fish config in dotfiles, which sets SSH_AUTH_SOCK.

4. Connect to GitHub

  1. Open the Key in 1Password.
  2. Copy the Public Key.
  3. Go to GitHub Keys.
  4. Add New Key (Paste the public key).
  5. Important: Select Key Type "Authentication" (and repeat for "Signing" if needed).

5. Verify

Run this in terminal. 1Password should pop up asking for Touch ID.

ssh -T git@github.com
