I would use a password manager with ssh-agent integration like KeePass, instead. But if you want to have the same level of protection (not exportable keys) you would need to store the key on the token with smartcard interface. But having a command to provide the key is a good idea. There are so many Solutions for using short lived certificates or one time keys for SSO, Bastions, Cloud IaM and automatically,provisioned,identities, they would be able To avoid wrappers when they have such an option. (For your usecase in particular I would not use it).
