> agent-authenticator — cgoberg-agent-authenticator. Use this tool when you need to securely authenticate AI agents with time-based one-time password (TOTP) multi-factor authentication (MFA) without exposing sensitive seed information. It solves the problem of protecting AI agent access with an additional layer of security, generating 2FA codes for authentication. The agent-authenticator takes in user credentials and outputs TOTP codes, ideal for use cases requiring enhanced security and self-hosted authentication solutions.
