  • keychain

    keychain ssh-agent front-end

    • (*) https://github.com/funtoo/keychain. Not updated since 2018 but does the trick very well.

  • yubikey-agent

    yubikey-agent is a seamless ssh-agent for YubiKeys.

    • I have the same concern. I modified Pageant (Windows agent) so that it prompts me before signing anything which helps ease my mind, I only approve when I know I'm connecting to a new server. There are also options like requiring a Yubikey too (https://github.com/FiloSottile/yubikey-agent)
