 - Password handling: When key-based authentication isn't used, you'll be prompted to enter a password/passphrase, which is piped to `sshfs -o password_stdin`. Ensure your SSH server allows password auth or use an SSH agent.
 - Default mount directory: By default, mounts go into `~/.sshfs/<host>/`. Override `mounts.base_dir` in your setup if you'd like a different location.
 - Key-based authentication: This plugin relies on your local SSH config and agent for auth. Make sure `ssh-agent` is running and your keys are loaded, or configure `IdentityFile` in your SSH config.
+- Known hosts management: If the target host is not already listed in `known_hosts`, the user will be prompted with its fingerprint and given the choice to trust and store it.
