i've been working on a thing called "noshtr" which replaces SSH with nostr and i was part way through implementing a noise protocol tunnel for it that uses nostr native - sha256/secp256k1 for MAC and ECDH

as far as using the pc locally, the idea would be to have an enclave that isolates your nsec and then hook that into anything that needs a signer

i don't think it would be useful to go any deeper than that, just to make nostr keys a native auth tool

You could also make local/remote relays part of the filesystem, like Microsoft does with OneDrive/Sharepoint in Windows.

now you digging at something interesting

this one is very interesting because of how it overlaps with blossom protocol, i mean, if you just purely do the "fetch this event ID" functionality they are the same protocol

to make it a useful FS you need to have human readable filenames not just crazy SHA256 identifiers

🤔 Yeah, stuff like this.

I'm kinda getting lost in the details, but I feel like I've done my part for posterity by suggesting it. 😂

well, a signer is at the centre of it, and secondarily a secure TTY, after that you are designing a system namespace hierarchy to tie it all together, and each different part that uses the same signatures/auth has its own specific set of concerns, like a local cache relay, or p2p shared relay caches/blossom etc

i see no reason why it can't be made into a little suite and it should be simple to have this tooling run on any OS to augment it to enable you to do native nostr stuff and plug into things like web apps for signing and so on, LN wallet signer keychains, one keychain to rule them all!

I like that. Nostr Suite. Suitestr. 😂
