Research direction
Start by reviewing the repository's existing DSC resources and checking whether an SSH configuration resource already exists. Define the supported SSH server settings, allowed-key handling, and Server 2025-and-below scope from the proposal. Done means the resource's properties, scenarios, and implementation boundaries are agreed.
