The password isn't required every time: Since Potato ssh-agent is started up automatically with the xsession (assumed ssh is proberly installed). So you have to call ssh-add < /dev/null only once and enter the ssh passwor in the raising dialog box. Next time you use ssh, ssh-agent is asked for that password.
