awnboard

A front gate you can put in front of anything, and hand someone the key to.

The problem

Letting one specific person reach one specific thing is still, in 2026, either a whole identity deployment or a link anyone who sees it can use. So everybody ships the link: an unguessable URL in an email, no expiry, no audience, no record of who walked through it -- and no way to take it back without breaking it for everyone.

instead of trusting

a share link anyone who sees it can use

you check

an invitation addressed to one person, for one gate, revocable

Adopt it

pip install awnboard

Put a gate in front of one URL and let exactly one person through it with a code you sent them.

Pairs with

awnest awiam awbac awdit awseal awshare awtunnel awnet awdk awmail

Pairing is composition, never dependency — awnboard installs and runs on its own.
