Intentionaly top posting: I just wanted to say that the question is resolved,
and record my understanding.
Thanks to all who replied!
Repeating the command for posterity:

In my (seemingly unending) quest to understand ssh, I've come across a
document that calls for running =eval 'ssh-agent'= from a command line.
