If you hadn’t discovered this already with you mac CLI commands, OpenSSH from OpenSSL ‘ssh-keygen’ command is a good way to create SSH keys in ClI and ships in many OSes or is a lightweight download. The OpenSSL website name is unambiguous, which is a benefit.

Independent projects but not unrelated since there was a historical dependency from OpenSSH to OpenSSL.

My knowledge was a bit outdated by about a decade.
