Generate an Authentication key by typing `addkey` then `8` to select the `(8) RSA (set your own capabilities)` option.
**Note** Newer versions of GnuPG may set a Restricted flag on the Authenticate key (see [issue 421](https://github.com/drduh/YubiKey-Guide/issues/421)) - set the **Authenticate** action with `=A` instead.
Toggle the required capabilities with `S`, `E` and `A` until **Authenticate** is the only allowed action:

- If you still receive the error, `sign_and_send_pubkey: signing failed: agent refused operation` - it is a [known issue](https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=274571) that openssh 8.9p1 and higher has issues with YubiKey. Adding `KexAlgorithms -sntrup761x25519-sha512@openssh.com` to `/etc/ssh/ssh_config` often resolves the issue.

- If you receive the error, `Error connecting to agent: No such file or directory` from `ssh-add -L`, the UNIX file socket that the agent uses for communication with other processes may not be set up correctly. On Debian, try `export SSH_AUTH_SOCK="/run/user/$UID/gnupg/S.gpg-agent.ssh"`. Also see that `gpgconf --list-dirs agent-ssh-socket` is returning single path, to existing `S.gpg-agent.ssh` socket.
