I agree with the output:

> `Please verify ... you have SSH forwarding set up correctly.`

As the listed link mentions,

- ensure that your ssh key is added to your ssh agent
  - list currently added keys: `ssh-add -l`
  - add keys: `ssh-add`

- and — since you’re on MacOS — ensure the key’s password is imported into your Keychain: `ssh-add -K`

In addition, if you’re on MacOS Sierra, be sure your ssh agent isn’t “forgetting” your keys:
