Based on the title I think OP meant to link https://blog.1password.com/1password-ssh-agent/.

Is anyone actually using these 1Password CLI tools in a serious way? Their CLI stuff has always seemed like a toy to me, like a fun side experiment, but I'd be interested if any organizations out there are actually putting it into their core workflows.

I do at my company. It is a little clunky initially, and it's too slow in multiple situations, but works well enough that I can work reasonably well from WSL or mingw32 in most situations, even with MFA.

However, to your point, it requires a broad discipline with naming and categorisation, so whilst it's part of a core workflow, it's a limited part of one segment of what we do.

Been using the ssh agent for a week and it is awesome.

Only downside is it locks way too often so I get too many unlock prompts from VS Code and other tools auto fetching remote repos.

But 1p have already fixed this in a beta.
