One annoying gotcha I hit after adding the new key to my agent was

many places now failed to auth as it tried each key in my agent and

The IdentitiesOnly option to ssh is useful for that. From
ssh_config(1):
Specifies that ssh(1) should only use the configured authentication
identity and certificate files (either the default files, or those
explicitly configured in the ssh_config files or passed on the ssh(1)
command-line), even if ssh-agent(1) or a PKCS11Provider or
SecurityKeyProvider offers more identities. The argument to this
keyword must be yes or no (the default). This option is intended for
situations where ssh-agent offers many different identities.
