Description
I’m having an issue getting my id_rsa private key working. I can see from Filza it’s in the .ssh folder but iSH isn’t using it and when I `ls -la` in the .ssh folder I don’t even see the id_rsa file so it seems iSH isn’t accessing it for some reason. Here is the path I placed the key in /var/mobile/Containers/Shared/AppGroup/BE4DEF7E-459C-4A7B-A732-FE452F1DEB65/roots/default/data/root/.ssh
I've tried messing with the keys permissions as well as the .ssh folders but no matter what it doesn't appear in iSH. I know I'm in the right folder because if I change the permissions of the .ssh folder it will disappear from iSH until I give the correct permissions back.
I was also told to try to save to file in my files app and then share it to iSH app but unfortunately I'm not seeing iSH as an option to be shared to.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the missing id_rsa entry with ls -la in the .ssh folder at the provided shared-container path, comparing it with what Filza shows. Check the reported permission changes and the attempted Files app share flow; done means identifying why iSH cannot see or receive the key and documenting a verified way to make it available.
