Solution

Check for a running ssh-agent, and start one if needed:
keychain


Also check for gpg-agent:
keychain --agents "{{gpg,ssh}}"


List signatures of all active keys:
keychain --list


List fingerprints of all active keys:
keychain --list-fp


Add a timeout for identities added to the agent, in minutes:
keychain --timeout {{minutes}}
