SSH key not working

Anvil Q&A
7

I wonder if this might be because you’re using a newer version of openssh than I am.

Something similar has been noted at bitbucket: OpenSSH 8.8 client incompatibility and workaround - Atlassian Community

Try adding the lines that they suggest to your config:

Host anvil.works
    IdentityFile <path to your key>
    HostkeyAlgorithms +ssh-rsa
    PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms +ssh-rsa

(BTW - the shell request error is as expected. We’re only using the ssh command to test the connection. We don’t actually expect anvil to give us a shell at their end)!
