I did something similar where you could send GitHubers encrypted messages only they could decrypt via their SSH public key that GitHub makes available: https://

  That's a cool idea. It would be neat to have some way of sending that to the githubber builtin to the tool. Maybe send an email to the githubber if they have an email published or maybe just post it to a gist that then you can send them the link to?

    I love that idea! I think you could use the anonymous gist API. Have the tool output to stdout/pbcopy the gist URL that was created upon encrypt and similarly have it accept a gist URL to decrypt. Nothing to send on either side beyond the URL.

      Unfortunately creation of automated gists via the API is soon to be deprecated. https://github.com/blog/2503-deprecation-notice-removing-anonymous-gist-creation https://github.com/blog/2503-deprecation-notice-removing-ano...

  I've considered adding Github public key support to EnvKey[1]. Currently, when inviting a user, you need to send a token out of band in order to not trust our servers during the invite process. Using the Github public key could potentially eliminate this step. My only concern is that these might have a tendency to get out of date or not be managed securely, in which case it could be more trouble than it's worth. 1 - https://www.envkey.com https://www.envkey.com
