Here’s how you accomplish this:

Go to your PuTTY Configuration

Go to the category SSH -> Auth

Enable SSH agent forwarding to your instance

$ ssh -v URL
# Connect to the specified URL with verbose debug output
> OpenSSH_8.1p1, LibreSSL 2.7.3
> debug1: Reading configuration data /Users/YOU/.ssh/config
> debug1: Applying options for example.com
> debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config
> debug1: Applying options for *
$ exit
# Returns to your local command prompt
