SANCTUM is the SSH access layer your team stops thinking about. Install one cron line on each server and every engineer, every key, every environment lives in one place. Users converge, access revokes propagate, sudo rotates, and nothing drifts. No daemons to install, no LDAP to babysit. Onboard a new hire in a minute, offboard them in the next. Built for startups and platform teams that have outgrown copy-pasting authorized_keys but aren't ready for a six-figure PAM contract.
I built SANCTUM because the existing options didn't match the reality of how small and mid-sized teams actually run infrastructure. The commercial SSH-access tools were priced for companies with Fortune-500 budgets and Fortune-500 problems - we had neither. Rolling our own was the usual mess of authorized_keys sprawl, Ansible drift, and stale accounts nobody wanted to audit. What I wanted didn't exist: something lightweight enough to run on a t4g.micro, disciplined enough to converge without babysitting, and honest enough to be MIT-licensed so the next founder in my position doesn't have to pay to solve the same problem. So I built it.
