#### `age.identityPaths`
`age.identityPaths` is a list of paths to recipient keys to try to use
to decrypt the secrets. All of the file paths must be present, but
only one needs to be able to decrypt the secret. Usually, you don't
need to change this. By default, this is the `rsa` and `ed25519` keys
in `config.services.openssh.hostKeys`.

`age.identityPaths` is a list of paths to recipient keys to try to use to

the nix store, which is the exact situation `agenix` is designed to avoid. At

secret in question. Overriding `age.identityPaths` example:
