# ssh-agent plugin

This plugin starts automatically `ssh-agent` to set up and load whichever

credentials you want for ssh connections.

To enable it, add `ssh-agent` to your plugins:

```zsh

plugins=(... ssh-agent)

```

## Instructions

To enable **agent forwarding support** add the following to your zshrc file:

```zsh

zstyle :omz:plugins:ssh-agent agent-forwarding on

```

To **load multiple identities** use the `identities` style, For example:

```zsh

zstyle :omz:plugins:ssh-agent identities id_rsa id_rsa2 id_github

```

To **set the maximum lifetime of the identities**, use the `lifetime` style.

The lifetime may be specified in seconds or as described in sshd_config(5)

(see _TIME FORMATS_). If left unspecified, the default lifetime is forever.

```zsh

zstyle :omz:plugins:ssh-agent lifetime 4h

```
