Coding Rules and Instructions

1. Test-Driven Development (TDD) with pytest: Always write a failing test before writing implementation code (Red-Green-Refactor). Use pytest and pytest-fixtures for test setup, execution, and teardown.
2. KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid): Favor the simplest solution that meets the requirements.
3. DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself): Avoid code duplication. Extract reusable logic into functions or classes.
4. Standard Libraries and Tools: Utilize standard Python libraries (like datetime for date/time, requests for HTTP requests, and logging) and external libraries, including BeautifulSoup4 for HTML parsing, to avoid reinventing the wheel. Favor well-maintained and widely-used libraries.
5. YAGNI (You Ain't Gonna Need It): Don't implement features or functionality unless they are currently required.
6. SOLID Principles & Extensibility: Adhere to SOLID principles, promoting maintainability, testability, and future extension. Consider potential future requi

Native Secure Enclave backed ssh keys on MacOS

It turns out that MacOS Tahoe can generate and use secure-enclave backed SSH keys! This replaces projects like https://github.com/maxgoedjen/secretive

There is a shared library /usr/lib/ssh-keychain.dylib that traditionally has been used to add smartcard support to ssh by implementing PKCS11Provider interface. However since recently it also implements SecurityKeyProivder which supports loading keys directly from the secure enclave! SecurityKeyProvider is what is normally used to talk to FIDO2 devices (e.g. libfido2 can be used to talk to your Yubikey). However you can now use it to talk to your Secure Enclave instead!
