Check what key is added to ssh agent

Viewed 7673

if we want to add our private ssh key we have to write in e.g powershell

ssh-add ~\.ssh\id_rsa

but is there possibility to check, what key is currently added to agent ?

I can't find that command on the internet.

GitHub has a documentation for Windows explaining how to launch the ssh-agent automatically from a git bash session (with the .bashrc)

Once launched, a ssh-add -L will list the active keys.

From there, ssh-add -l/-L will list the register keys fingerprint, pr keys content.
(And ssh-add is included in Git for Windows)

You can compare a fingerprint from ssh-add -l with ssh-keygen -lf /path/to/ssh/key in order to determine which key filename was added to the agent.
(and ssh-keygen is also included with Git for Windows)
