"SSH authorization model was set incorrectly, dropping signature request" when signing git commit

I set up the SSH Agent, and added the config for signing git commits. However, when I actually commit, it fails with the error:

error: agent returned an error

fatal: failed to write commit object

Looking in the logs, that seems to correspond to a message like

ERROR 2023-04-14T13:49:50.092 tokio-runtime-worker(ThreadId(7)) [1P:ssh/op-ssh-agent/src/lib.rs:583] SSH authorization model was set incorrectly, dropping signature request

I couldn't find any documentation that suggested a specific resolution for that error, any pointers?

    I'm in process of setting up a new M2 MacBook Pro and get the same exact error. I've been using 1password ssh agent just fine on my intel mac for some time now.

    Error in the terminal when attempting to clone a git repo:

    sign_and_send_pubkey: signing failed for RSA "personal ssh key" from agent: agent refused operation
    git@github.com: Permission denied (publickey).
    fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

    Please make sure you have the correct access rights
    and the repository exists.

    Specific error in the log I'm seeing is:

    ERROR 2023-04-14T18:21:18.270 tokio-runtime-worker(ThreadId(12)) [1P:ssh/op-ssh-agent/src/lib.rs:583] SSH authorization model was set incorrectly, dropping signature request

    But i can clone the same repo on my old intel-based mac just fine when using 1password SSH Agent 🤔

    I am having the same error after setting up the SSH agent on a new M2 Mac mini. It works on my M2 MacBook Pro.

    This was using a SSH key locally to one of my servers.

    So after a log out and log in the problem seemed to go away.

    As with @cpennington, this worked for me: https://1password.community/discussion/139580/why-are-my-ssh-attempts-failing

    "open the 1Password app and navigate to Settings -> Developer -> SSH Agent -> Security and change the "Ask approval for each new..." setting to some other value and then change it back to the setting you prefer?"
