ssm-proxy
Intermediate between ssh (via ProxyCommand) and AWS ssm start-session using the AWS-StartSSHSession document. Uploads your id_rsa.pub to the instance and then ensures it is deleted after 30 seconds, following the model from ssm-scala.
In practice this means you can run:
ssh i-0123ade411
and it will magically connect you, providing you have AWS credentials for the correct Janus profile.
