Mimier (Only for Mac)

1. Save OTP of a particular in key chain
2. Print of a particular service
3. Copy of a particular service to clipboard

Now mimier has vpnautoconnect.app (for Mojave). Add this application to have assistive access. And simply run the application.

Why?

I use otp for most of the accounts. Currently I have around 12 accounts which needs otp. Though there are lot of pretty good apps for otps such as GAuthenticator, Authneticator (Chrome) and etc. I don't prefer to use mouse so much.

So, what mimier will do, uses keyboard shortcut cmd + shift + o (personal perference) to wakeup, and then it asks for user input for service account (for which account you need otp) and copies the otp to clipboard.

How?

Mimer uses automator to get benefited. It mainly uses 2 things, get text(which currently changed to apple script) and run bash script.

Security Concerns?

Mimier stores all service tokens in keychain, so if your key chain is secured, well, your tokens are secured.

Dependencies

Mimier depends on oauth tool to generate otp. You can install it by running the following command

brew install oath-toolkit
