Middlesock

Middlesock is a simple, lightweight and secure middleware to monitor an Authentik instance without exposing your admin credentials to native API clients. Written in Rust using the Rocket library.

Intended for use with Homepage: just run Authentik, then use the Middlesock URL as your Authentik instance URL within services.yml without specifying any credentials.

Installation (Docker)
