Is this protocol described anywhere?

Probably the best place is the snail book.

http://www.snailbook.com/

But cribbed from putty's page, there are a number of related standards,
but no one good place so far as I can tell:

* RFC 4250: The Secure Shell (SSH) Protocol Assigned Numbers * RFC
4251: The Secure Shell (SSH) Protocol Architecture * RFC 4252: The
Secure Shell (SSH) Authentication Protocol * RFC 4253: The Secure
Shell (SSH) Transport Layer Protocol * RFC 4254: The Secure Shell
(SSH) Connection Protocol * RFC 4256: Generic Message Exchange
Authentication for the Secure
Shell Protocol (SSH)
* RFC 4335: The Secure Shell (SSH) Session Channel Break Extension *
RFC 4344: The Secure Shell (SSH) Transport Layer Encryption
Modes (in part)
* RFC 4345: Improved Arcfour Modes for the Secure Shell (SSH)
Transport Layer Protocol
* RFC 4419: Diffie-Hellman Group Exchange for the Secure Shell
(SSH) Transport Layer Protocol
* RFC 4432: RSA Key Exchange for the Secure Shell (SSH) Transport
Layer Protocol
* RFC 4716: The Secure Shell (SSH) Public Key File Format * IETF
Secure Shell working group drafts:
o filexfer


Thanks. However, none of those documents have to do with the scp
protocol.

Which is why I started with suggesting the OReily book on SSH as your
best bet.
