Things to know

• !The README says not every provider action or OAuth flow has been verified against a live account.
• !You must back up the encryption key yourself, since losing it makes stored credentials unreadable.
• !It is a compact self-hosted gateway, not a managed service with the broader catalogs and features of commercial platforms.
