Sorry maybe I am not aligned, ssh-agent for handling password prompt? ssh-agent afaik is useful for going from A->B and then B carrying that over to C,D,E,F,G etc

Maybe we're talking about different things then? If you use the agent, you only have to handle the prompt once, then it's cached. That's the automation I was replying about.
