okay bestie, so this is the stenokeys page from the stenographer manual, and it's honestly shorter than my attention span but like, SO important. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

stenokeys — sets up keys for stenographer client/server auth 🔑✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

stenokeys <stenouser> <stenogroup>

like. two args. that's it. iconic minimalism fr fr 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea, bestie: the stenokeys tool creates the required server and client certificates and keys for authentication of the stenographer client components when they're communicating with the server. 🔐

it's giving "let me handle the whole trust thing for you" and honestly? we love a tool that just does the thing. no cap.

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

ngl this section is more of a "here's what your arguments mean" moment, but we're gonna treat it with the respect it deserves:

• stenouser — the username of the stenographer user. the tool uses it to set the appropriate permissions on the created files. 👑
• stenogroup — the group of the stenographer user, and yeah, same deal: it's what determines the appropriate permissions on the created files. 🌈

lowkey important: stenokeys accepts the username and group of the stenographer user specifically to set the appropriate permissions on the created files. so like, don't just put your own name in there unless you're actually the stenographer user. 💀

and that's the whole page, bestie!! short, sweet, and doing the absolute most for your auth setup. 🧚💖

this one came from stenographer 1.0.1, dated 02 November 2021 — so yeah, it's got a lil vintage moment going on, but it still ate. ✨

mwah, go set up those keys. you got this. 💅🌸
