New description:

 On macOS 10.13.6 after (as root):

 {{{
 port install openssh
 port load openssh
 }}}

 and then e.g, as user:

 {{{
 scp ....
 }}}

 instead of /opt/local/bin/ssh-agent , the native /usr/bin/ssh-agent is
 still run.
 How to invoke macports /opt/local/bin/ssh-agent  ?

Comment:

 Hopefully you are not actually using MacPorts 2.8.0 which was released in
 2022 but are instead using the latest version 2.9.3. If `port version`
 does not show at least 2.9.3, please update to 2.9.3 by running `sudo port
 selfupdate` or downloading and running the installer from our web site.

 A single port can have multiple launchd plists if needed.
