Description

When I try to access the keybase filesystem it timeouts.

I guess that my private key through gpg-agent is not yet supported by the application.

my log id: 27ceafbbd9807aa44912d71c

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Keybase filesystem timeout and reviewing the provided log ID, then investigate the application's handling of private keys through gpg-agent. Done means the filesystem can be accessed when the private key is managed by gpg-agent, with the timeout resolved and the behavior verified.
