It is necessary to allow this passphrase presetting by starting gpg-agent with the --allow-preset-passphrase. useful for unattended machines, where the usual pinentry tool It is necessary to allow But it only works when gpg-agent is started with --allow-preset-passphrase. Since version 2.1 GnuPG has a loopback pinentry mode which does not use the pinentry but sends the request for a passphrase back to the calling application (gpg or gpgsm). GnuPG 1.x is not supported. Passphrases set with this utility don’t expire unless the --max-cache-ttl is still honored. Put a passphrase into gpg-agent's cache. To enable this, ensure allow-preset-passphrase is also in ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf. If you want to forget a passphrase before the ttl is up, you can use gpg-preset-passphrase to forget it. To make permanent changes to the cache settings of gpg-agent, edit ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf` and add something like: default-cache-ttl 60 # Expire GPG keys when unused for 1 minute max-cache-ttl 600 # Expire GPG keys after 10 minutes since addition $ eval $(gpg-agent --daemon --allow-preset-passphrase) Or: $ eval $(gpg-agent --daemon) (Which requires us to add allow-preset-passphrase in ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf. this passphrase presetting by starting gpg-agent with the It might be a daft question but have you enable passphrase caching for gpg-agent (either in gpg-agent.conf, via command line option or systemd service)? cacheid is either a 40 character keygrip of hexadecimal characters identifying the key for which the passphrase should be set or cleared. characters identifying the key for which the passphrase should be set . Note that this relies on gpg-agent's passphrase presetting support. --allow-preset-passphrase. I can list my private and public keys on the remote host. GPG Agent Service Start Up and Configuration. Nite that the maximum cache time as set with --max-cache-ttl is still honored. API. and an index. ... gpg-agent.conf This is the standard configuration file read by gpg-agent on startup. This time span can be configured in ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf, which in my case contains a line. If I try to decrypt a file remotely, the PIN is prompted for but the text is stepped, garbled and the passphrase prompt echoes the passphrase (at least several random chars).

I had run a normal gpg-agent as people expect for things like mutt and handling special files and I ran another gpg-agent that didn’t use the standard socket and cached my backup key’s passphrase so that the backups run without user intervention.
