An AI agent's ability to deploy code to servers is hindered by the security risks associated with handling SSH private keys. Directly providing an agent with a private key is problematic due to its bearer nature, lack of scope, and irreversible compromise. A more secure approach involves a custodian system where the agent requests actions, and a separate broker process handles authentication using short-lived credentials or certificates, ensuring better observability and easier revocation.
