💖 activate-cryptobone(8) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the activate-cryptobone manual page, section 8 — yes, that's the sysadmin section, we're in the big leagues now 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

activate-cryptobone — a setup tool that ties one specific user to the Crypto Bone 🦴✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

/usr/bin/activate-cryptobone

that's it. that's the whole call. no flags, no drama, just vibes 🌸

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically, this command-line program activate-cryptobone gets called by the GUI cryptobone2 — like, the GUI is the one sliding into its DMs and asking for help 🙈

what it's for? it lets one specific user use the Crypto Bone software. periodt. and it's necessary, okay, not optional, not a nice-to-have — you literally need this to tie the use of the GUI to a specific user, the one who's gonna access the Crypto Bone's secret information as root 👑

here's the tea: this program creates a file inside the directory /etc/sudoers.d, and that file permits access to /usr/lib/cryptobone/cbcontrol as root — but ONLY after the user has successfully authenticated with their login password 🔐✨

so like... it's giving "you can have the keys, but only if you prove it's actually you first" and honestly? iconic. slay.
