Description

@SiriosDev
SiriosDev
opened on Jul 23, 2026

SSH Command version
v1.0.3

Home Assistant version
2026.7.3

Issue / Experienced behavior
I have a private key with a passphrase, and I can't use it with this integration because it doesn't allow me to enter a passphrase anywhere.

Expected behavior
An additional field for the passphrase, or, if you want perfection, use HA's built-in, secure feature called application_credentials (including for passwords and usernames)

    This will be included in the next release - sorry it took so long.
