I added an authentication key to my existing key <yubikey at f76.eu>.
$ gpg --edit-key --expert yubikey at f76.eu
> addkey
I selected:
8: RSA (set your own capabilities)
S: disable sign capability
E: disable encrypt capability
A: enable authenticate capability
4096: key size
0: expiry (never)
However, I cannot export it for SSH:
$ gpg --list-keys --keyid-format SHORT yubikey at f76.eu
pub rsa4096/1B6ED589 2023-06-29 [SC]

$ gpg --export-ssh-key FBA5B1E5
gpg: key "FBA5B1E5" not found: Unusable public key
