I just released https://crates.io/crates/openpgp-card-ssh-agent version 0.2.0, an #SSH agent for #OpenPGP card users.

It contains exciting UX changes: after one-time initial setup, no user interaction is required.

The User PIN for cards is persisted in platform-specific secret storage. For all users whose threat model allows persisting PINs on the host (presumably most), this removes pin entry.

Required touch confirmation on the card (if enabled) is signaled with desktop notifications.
