To configure the integration of Medis with 1Password, follow these steps:

## Update SSH Config

Configure the 1Password SSH agent in your SSH config file by referring to [1Password's SSH Configuration Guide](https://developer.1password.com/docs/ssh/get-started/#step-4-configure-your-ssh-or-git-client) and adding the following:

```
Host *
  IdentityAgent "~/Library/Group Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock"
```

to your `~/.ssh/config`.
