Unix sockets, Cygwin, SSH agents, and sadness
If that project https://github.com/buptczq/WinCryptSSHAgent had a pin timeout, it would be the perfect Windows ssh agent. It support named pipe, pagent shared memory and a UNIX socket under WSL2 using Hyper-V and socat.

- Powershell script to automatically ssh into multiple servers and layout the panels
- Use PIV for SSH without PIN/touch?

Ask HN: Have you created programs for only your personal use?
I have written these sorts of things, but I do try and put them up on GitHub if I think they’ll be useful to other people. I wrote a tool unimaginatively named wsl-ssh-pageant [0] which I wanted because I use a YubiKey for my SSH key but wanted it to be available in WSL. It has been by far my most popular GitHub project.
I do have other things as well, some on GitHub some not. A scraper to notify me when a local gym booking website changes for a time I’m interested in. A bridge between a BroadLink RM4 and HomeKit for some fans [1] - I wanted to avoid home-assistant. A script to grab my power consumption data. A shim to make gpg-agent compatible with launchd’s socket activation protocol [2].

Would Yubikey provide official support of using yubikey in WSL 1/2?
I don't need to pass a path to the gpg socket to wsl-ssh-pageant. I just pass it the UNC path for the socket I want it to open.

In the past I also used https://github.com/benpye/wsl-ssh-pageant to go from WSL to Pageant (which I believe KeeAgent is also compatible with)
