 |Do you know whether the agent was still running or if it has terminated?

It is running from Monday to Saturday (supervising a terminal
multiplexer, from within which everything happens (and itself
supervised by ssh session without agent forwarding, on hardware)).

No.  The only timeouts i have are ControlPersist, RekeyLimit,
and ServerAliveInterval.  The server is default AlpineLinux less
some access methods, with only one KexAlgorithm and set
ClientAlive*.
