Looks nice. Can anyone comment on how auth works with Twirp? I was trying to get GRPC working to authenticate with unsigned ssl certs (much like using SSH) an

  Yep, you can do this pretty easily because Twirp's generated objects plug in nicely to the normal `net/http` tools. The server is a `http.Handler`, and the client constructor takes a `http.Client`. So if you're familiar with how to use SSL certs for authentication with a vanilla Go HTTP client and server, Twirp would work in exactly the same way. When you create a Twirp server, you get a `net/http.Handler`. You can mount it on a `http.Server` with its `TLSConfig` field set to the right policy. The client constructor similarly takes a `*net/http.Client`. You could provide a Client that uses a `http.Transport` with its `TLSClientConfig` field set to something using the right value (like in https://gist.github.com/michaljemala/d6f4e01c4834bf47a9c4 https://gist.github.com/michaljemala/d6f4e01c4834bf47a9c4, say).
