Coder created workspace (from K8s Devcontainer template) does not seem to inject proper SSH key

Hi i need some help setting up Coder on a K8s cluster. I've installed coder in K8s (via helm), configured role and role binding for PVC and Deployments. Setting up a workspace from the k8S DevContainer template seems working fine except that ssh keys are not properly injected into the workspace, resulting in git clone failure. Below are the logs. Really appreciate any help!

Curious question, is the Coder agent running in the workspace pod actually passes SSH keys as mentioned here. If so, what's the mechanism? Attaching some logs below.

Seems like the coder agent (inside workspace) returns error on coder gitssh command, is this a bug?
