API to fetch tokens programatically

[PrayagS]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I've migrated to ente auth from Authy as many others. What I miss here is a Raycast extension that lets me fetch tokens.

That reduces the context switch between the desktop and the phone or even between the textbox and the desktop app for ente auth.

Authy has an extension like that built by the community: https://github.com/raycast/extensions/blob/main/extensions/authy/README.md

Describe the solution you'd like

Some kind of API that lets users fetch tokens.

I believe something like that should already be in place given that the desktop app is already being developed.

The underlying tech for Raycast extensions is very similar to current stack for Auth web.
https://developers.raycast.com/

Powerful and familiar tooling: Extensions are built with TypeScript, React, and Node. Leverage npm's ecosystem to quickly build what you imagine.

If anyone is interested in building this extension, they can refer to the auth web code here.

Awesome. Thanks for sharing that.

I might hack around this during the weekend.
