Keypub.sh – OAuth for the terminal using SSH keys
Hi HN! I built KeyPub.sh to solve the problem of user verification for CLI applications. It's essentially OAuth for the terminal, but using SSH keys that developers and users already have. - No installation needed - works with existing SSH setup - Privacy-focused: users control what email info is shared - Simple email verification process - Free public service - Perfect for CLI app developers who don't want to build user verification Try it with: `$ ssh keypub.sh about` Source code: https://github.com/skariel/keypub
In plain words
Keypub.sh is an authentication service for command-line applications that uses SSH keys instead of passwords or traditional OAuth. Developers building CLI tools can integrate it to verify users without building their own authentication system. The service requires no installation, leverages SSH keys users already have, and gives users control over what email information is shared. It operates as a free public service and works by running a simple SSH command.
