I had the same problem.
For me the issue was the fact that npm tries to access github trough ssh and tries to use the default key file, if the file has a password the process fails.
So at the end of the day you should set your default key without password.
To confirm that try to execute this command manually
/usr/bin/git ls-remote -h -t ssh://[email protected]/ngokevin/ziploader.git

if it asks for a password or gives an error then you should solve that.

Thanks for the suggestion but it doesn't seem to solve the issue. As @dmarcos suggested in discord, "add your public key to github?" worked. https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account

Thanks frabul and fliodhais!
I had to follow both steps. Adding SSH key generated on this device to github account then followed by the manual command to ziploader.

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])? yes

Accepting this solved this issue.
