+## Description
+
+[Infisical SSH](/documentation/platform/ssh) lets you issue SSH credentials to clients to provide short-lived, secure SSH access to infrastructure.
+
+This command enables you to obtain SSH credentials used to access a remote host; we recommend using the `issue-credentials` sub-command to generate dynamic SSH credentials for each SSH session.
+
+### Sub-commands
+
+<Accordion title="infisical ssh issue-credentials">
+    This command is used to issue SSH credentials (SSH certificate, public key, and private key) against a certificate template.
+    
+    We recommend using the `--addToAgent` flag to automatically load issued SSH credentials to the SSH agent.
+    
+    ```bash
+    $ infisical ssh issue-credentials --certificateTemplateId=<certificate-template-id> --principals=<principals> --addToAgent
+    ```
+
+    ### Flags
+    <Accordion title="--certificateTemplateId">
+        The ID of the SSH certificate template to issue SSH credentials for.
+    </Accordion>
+    <Accordion title="--principals">
+        A comma-separated list of principals (i.e. usernames like `ec2-user` or hostnames) to issue SSH credentials for.

+    </Accordion>
+    <Accordion title="--outFilePath">
+        The path to write the SSH credentials to such as `~/.ssh`, `./some_folder`, `./some_folder/id_rsa-cert.pub`. If not provided, the credentials will be saved to the current working directory where the command is run.
+        
+        Note that either the `--outFilePath` or `--addToAgent` flag must be set for the sub-command to execute successfully.

+    </Accordion>
+    <Accordion title="--keyId">
+        A custom Key ID to issue SSH credentials for.

+    </Accordion>
+</Accordion>

+<Accordion title="infisical ssh sign-key">
+    This command is used to sign an existing SSH public key against a certificate template; the command outputs the corresponding signed SSH certificate.

+  <Step title="Obtain a SSH certificate and load it into the SSH agent">
-    Depending on the use-case, a client may either request a SSH certificate along with a new SSH key pair or obtain a SSH certificate for an existing SSH key pair to access a host.
+    Run the `infisical ssh issue-credentials` command, specifying the `--addToAgent` flag to automatically load the SSH certificate into the SSH agent.

-      <Accordion title="Using New Key Pair (Recommended)">
-        If you wish to obtain a new SSH key pair in conjunction with the SSH certificate, then you can use the `infisical ssh issue-credentials` command.
-
     ```bash
-        infisical ssh issue-credentials --certificateTemplateId=<certificate-template-id> --principals=<username>
+    infisical ssh issue-credentials --certificateTemplateId=<certificate-template-id> --principals=<username> --addToAgent
     ```
 
-        The following flags may be relevant:
+    Here's some guidance on each flag:
 
     - `certificateTemplateId`: The ID of the certificate template to use for issuing the SSH certificate.
     - `principals`: The comma-delimited username(s) or hostname(s) to include in the SSH certificate.
-        - `outFilePath` (optional): The path to the file to write the SSH certificate to.
     
-        <Note>
+    For fuller documentation on commands and flags supported by the Infisical CLI for SSH, refer to the docs [here](/cli/commands/ssh).
-          If `outFilePath` is not specified, the SSH certificate will be written to the current working directory where the command is run.

-      <Accordion title="Using Existing Key Pair">
-        If you have an existing SSH key pair, then you can use the `infisical ssh sign-key` command with either
-        the `--publicKey` flag or the `--publicKeyFilePath` flag to obtain a SSH certificate corresponding to
-        the existing credential.
-
-        ```bash
-        infisical ssh sign-key --publicKeyFilePath=<public-key-file-path> --certificateTemplateId=<certificate-template-id> --principals=<username>
-        ```
-
-        The following flags may be relevant:
-
-        - `publicKey`: The public key to sign.
-        - `publicKeyFilePath`: The path to the public key file to sign.
-        - `certificateTemplateId`: The ID of the certificate template to use for issuing the SSH certificate.
-        - `principals`: The comma-delimited username(s) or hostname(s) to include in the SSH certificate.
-        - `outFilePath` (optional): The path to the file to write the SSH certificate to.
-
-        <Note>
-          If `outFilePath` is not specified but `publicKeyFilePath` is then the SSH certificate will be written to the directory of the public key file; if the public key file is called `id_rsa.pub`, then the file containing the SSH certificate will be called `id_rsa-cert.pub`.
-
-          Otherwise, if `outFilePath` is not specified, the SSH certificate will be written to the current working directory where the command is run.

   <Step title="SSH into the host">
-    Once you have obtained the SSH certificate, you can use it to SSH into the desired host.
+    Finally, SSH into the desired host; the SSH operation will be performed using the SSH certificate loaded into the SSH agent.
 
     ```bash
-    ssh -i /path/to/private_key.pem \
+    ssh username@hostname
-    -o CertificateFile=/path/to/ssh-cert.pub \
-    username@hostname
     ```
-
-    <Note>
-      We recommend setting up aliases so you can more easily SSH into the desired host.
-
-      For example, you may set up an SSH alias using the SSH client configuration file (usually `~/.ssh/config`), defining a host alias including the file path to the issued SSH credential(s).
