Working in VSC with 1p-SSH keys / Unlock 1p many times a day
I love to have SSH keys stored in 1password and not on the local disc any more. This makes my keys more "mobile".
But now with my setup on my daily basis I really have to often unlock 1password (with the fingerprint) within Visual Studio Code. When I leve the Mac and come back later, I have to unlock it again. And again. And again.'
In know: This is security basis of 1password. But with the comfort of have the SSH keys with me, I lost the comfort while using VSC. Is it possible to grand access for a session within VSC?
1Password Version: 8.6.0
Extension Version: 2.3.0
OS Version: maxOS 12.2.1
This is something I was going to raise as well, I understand the security implications so it would be good to perhaps have a configurable amount of time. At least have the SSH Agent follow the same logic as Auto-lock from the settings.
With my previous setup my keys would get unlocked by passphrase each login and that was it, whereby now I have having to pass biometric auth quite frequently. Windows Hello is good, but it isn't that good and it's slowing me down.
I also ran into this, but I use SSH within VS Code so infrequently that I decide to disable/remove the remote/SSH plugin…
(Might revert that if 1Password has a better solution)
