Encountering an error while trying to install DefinitelyTyped Typescript definitions via npm. Error message reads "Permission denied (publickey)."

I am currently facing an issue while attempting to set up the type definition for bleno from the DefinitelyTyped repository. The command I have been using is:

npm install --save @types/bleno

However, it appears that there are restrictions preventing me from cloning the repository.

Despite trying with sudo and adding the SSH key to GitHub, I am still unable to resolve my issue. I can successfully connect to GitHub via:

Yet, my problem persists. What could I be doing incorrectly?
