Maintaining SSH configs can be a pain when you're hopping between multiple devices, even more when syncing apps (Synology/NextCloud/etc) are blocked on some networks/devices.

Make sure you have iCloud Drive enabled and this will symlink your SSH config + key to a folder in iCloud Drive and sync across devices.

The iCloud Drive is located at ~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs. By putting this file + your config/id_rsa files in here, it will simply symlink them. Warning - the setup script will overwrite existing config/id_rsa files.

Install

cd ~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs
mkdir macOS && cd macOS
# Create above setup.sh file and copy in your .ssh/config and .ssh/id_rsa keys
./setup.sh

setup.sh file

#!/bin/bash
FOLDER=$(pwd)
ln -sf "$FOLDER/config" ~/.ssh/config
ln -sf "$FOLDER/id_rsa" ~/.ssh/id_rsa
