7.8 Communicate with a running agent.

The gpg-connect-agent is a utility to communicate with a running gpg-agent. It is useful to check out the commands gpg-agent provides using the Assuan interface. It might also be useful for scripting simple applications. Input is expected at stdin and out put gets printed to stdout.

It is very similar to running gpg-agent in server mode; but here we connect to a running instance.
