This type of question is common on the cygwin mailing lists.

Try the cygwin package search at http://cygwin.com/packages/
There is a link to it on the main cygwin page, but it's not particularly
obvious.

Just enter ssh-agent in the search box, it'll list packages containing
a matching file and if you click on a link, it'll list the files in
that package.

To save you the trouble this time, the package you want is openssh.

Once you know the name of the package, I find it's easier to find it in
cygwin's setup by switching the view mode to "full".

HTH,
 Phil
