1.  Start the `ssh-agent` in the background using the command `eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"`. You will get the agent process ID in return.

    ```none
    eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
    Agent pid 59566
    ```

2.  On macOS Sierra 10.12.2 or newer, modify your
`~/.ssh/config` file to automatically load keys into the `ssh-agent` and store
passphrases in your keychain.

    ```none
    Host *
     AddKeysToAgent yes
     UseKeychain yes
     IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
    ```

3.  Add your SSH private key to the ssh-agent, using the default macOS `ssh-add` command.

    ```none
    $ ssh-add -K ~/.ssh/id_rsa
    ```

    If you created your key with a different name or have an existing key
    with  a different name, replace `id_rsa` in the command with the
    name of your private key file.
