So attezt now contains 3 components.
- `atteztd` which is an Attestation CA with an inventory API
- `attezt-agent` that implement device enrollment and an p11-kit agent.
- `attezt` that is the client for both the agent and the attestation ca. Modelled after step/step-caEverything has an #varlink APIs as well.

Watched @pid_eins #fosdem2026 presentation record about #Varlink. I think the idea is good, except it should use some binary protocol for communication between services. RFC 8949 #CBOR seems like excellent candidate. Text serialization is not necessary if human is never direct part of a pipeline. Data conversion is not slow, but not necessary between localhost- only services.

I lied when I said #PAM authentication will come next week. Here's #WebIDAMd demonstrating password authentication against #OAuth, with a PAM module speaking via #Varlink to the daemon:
