SSH Client Compatibility
With the many SSH clients out there, not every one of those supports every SSH agent configuration option.
To save you some headaches, we've been testing a lot of popular SSH & Git clients lately ourselves, and we've assembled our findings into this page:
https://developer.1password.com/docs/ssh/agent/compatibility
We'd love to hear from you in the thread below which SSH clients you feel are missing from this list!
1Password Version: Not Provided

The tools we'll be covering next on the compatibility page:
Putty is missing. As far as I know, it's a quite popular ssh client for Windows.
Putty's agent called pageant is actually using the same mechanism as the Windows OpenSSH client, only the name of the named pipe for communication is different. The only thing you seem to need to add is a named pipe with the same naming scheme as Putty.
I would love to see Putty and/or MobaXTerm (can use pageant)
I would love to see PuTTY, both putty.exe and plink.exe since the last one can be used as SSH channel for git for windows through git config core.sshCommand or GIT_SSH environment variable
I would also love pageant support, mostly for KiTTy (which itself is based on PuTTy)
While it would be nice if Pageant were supported natively, you can get this working right now by installing winssh-pageant.
Be great to see support for ssh(nassh) Chrome extension which is super useful.
I'd love to see some support for Sequel Ace too.
If you are on Mac and don't use TablePlus there's a 99% chance that you are using Sequel Ace.
I cannot get either Fork or GitKraken working using the SSH_AUTH_SOCK method. Works fine with git CLI however.
Re my above comment: Once I logged out on the Mac and logged back in again, the SSH_AUTH_SOCK export started working for the apps I tried it with. Unfortunately Fork doesn't support GPG.format = ssh so GitKraken it is (although truthfully I just use git cli for most things).
Hi @floris_1P š
Do you have any results from your compatibility test with DataGrip (SSH tunneling)? I'm trying to create the SSH tunnel. When I click to test the connection, the 1Password authorization modal is opened, but after I authenticate, the connection fails and DataGrip shows the message "cannot connect to remote host".
@floris_1P I had an issue getting 1Password to work with TablePlus for ages, then once I'd enabled
SSH Debug Login TablePlus and started the app via the command line, it requested access from 1Password and worked correctly. There is some issue going on there.See this Github thread for more details, including mine and the authors posts, which both had the same issue - https://github.com/TablePlus/TablePlus/issues/2645
