After every start of WSL, add the key to the SSH agent and unlock it with the password. For example when starting the day, after WSL start
`ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519`
## Forward agent
Usualy a good idea to forward the agent. With this if using a jump host, you do not need to reenter the password if connect from a host to another host. Add this or create the `~/.ssh/config` file
```
Host *
ServerAliveInterval 15
ForwardAgent yes
```
> ServerAlive useful, if the underlying connection closes the TCP sockets, E.G. Cisco EPC3925 or NATted cellular networks. This option sends dummy packet every 15 secs to keep the connection up.
## todo
- Add the ability to ask the key password on login
- Store the SSH key between restarts (probably requires external packages)
