YesPaPa is the human-in-the-loop safety layer for AI coding agents. When an LLM agent or script tries to run a destructive command — like rm -rf, git push --force, or DROP TABLE - YesPaPa intercepts it and sends an approval request straight to your phone. How it works: - Install the YesPaPa CLI on your machine - Scan the pairing QR code with this app (or use offline mode with totp) - Dangerous commands are intercepted and held until you approve Approve with confidence: - One-tap approve or deny from a push notification - See the full command, AI crafted justification, and context before deciding - Approve with a message to guide the agent's next steps - Set Auto-Bypass (grace periods) for trusted command patterns Built on real security: - TOTP-based authentication (RFC 6238) - works offline too - Zero-trust architecture - approvals are cryptographically verified - Tamper-resistant - agents cannot bypass or uninstall their own guardrails(read the docs.yespapa.io for advanced use) - Falls back to manual TOTP codes if the server is unreachable(self hosting included!) Perfect for: - Developers using OpenClaw, Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot workflows, or other AI coding assistants - DevOps engineers running automated scripts on production systems - Teams that need human approval gates for destructive operations in CI/CD pipelines - Anyone who wants a safety net before irreversible commands execute YesPaPa works with any shell on macOS and Linux. The CLI is open-source at github.com/yespapa-cli. Docs available: https://docs.yespapa.io
