That works. Thanks.

Nope. No such options. They supposedly offer a "pro" version with more
capabilities but that doesn't seem a good idea since they ignore email.

For me:

$ head -2 /etc/os-release
NAME="Fedora Linux"
VERSION="40 (Forty)"
$ ssh-add -l
The agent has no identities.

I didn't mean to imply that the agent was not present on my system,
only that I've never explicitly made use of it or observed it doing
anything.
