KBFS messenger (proof of concept)

Inspired by the twtxt file format, here's a handful of shell- and python-scripts that will let you communicate securely (sign and encrypt) with somebody, using the Keybase filesystem (KBFS) as transport- and storage-medium.

Requirements

• Bash (tested with v4.3.46)
  • tmux (tested with v2.2)
  • stat (from coreutils)
• Python 3 (tested with v3.5.2)
  • python-dateutil
  • humanize

Quickstart

Put all of the scripts from the …/src directory somewhere in your $PATH, then launch kbmsgr (/keybase should be mounted, of course):

$ kbmsgr ${my_keybase_username} ${their_keybase_username}

Caveat

This is alpha quality software, use at your own peril.
