When a push under the agent identity fails with mixed lefthook + SSH output, agents have misread it as an SSH transport issue and then debugged with GIT_SSH_COMMAND="ssh -v", which silently drops the -i and IdentitiesOnly flags configured here. Cross-ref the new git:push skill in pickled-claude-plugins for the diagnosis recipe. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Adds a short `See also` section to ADR 0031 (role-scoped agent git identity) that points at the `git:push` skill in pickled-claude-plugins. Specifically calls out the `GIT_SSH_COMMAND="ssh -v"` trap: it replaces `core.sshCommand` entirely, dropping the agent-key flags configured by this ADR and making the wrong keys appear to be offered.
Why
Real session (07e498f8 on 2026-05-07) misread a failed push as an SSH issue when in fact pre-push lefthook tests had failed, then debugged with `GIT_SSH_COMMAND="ssh -v"` and dropped the `-i ~/.ssh/agents/work/id_ed25519 -o IdentitiesOnly=yes` flags this ADR sets up. Pure debug artifact, but compounded the misdiagnosis. Cross-ref makes the agent-side guidance discoverable from the SSH-setup documentation.
The deeper guidance lives in the `git:push` skill (PR technicalpickles/pickled-claude-plugins#72) so it's loaded into agent context via Claude Code, not as ADR prose.
