We need more key pairs than ever so I released a GitHub action to run ssh-keygen command and create key pairs.

You can create key pairs in web page securely just by clicking.

Quick start

  1. Use the template to create a repo, better as a private repo for security
  2. Go to Actions top menu page, follow the steps as below:

ssh keygen action steps

  1. After one minute or two, you’ll see two files, private_key.txt and public_key.txt, are added/updated in repo’s root directory when the action finished successfully
  2. Open each file and click Copy raw contents button on the top right to copy the key

Done!
