### 🧠 What It Does

Watches your Gmail. Sees a 6-digit code. Grabs it.  
Then politely drops it in your clipboard before you even blink.

Basically: Apple-style SMS autofill… but for emails… on desktop… with attitude.

**Quick Steps:**  
Install ➜ Connect Gmail + AI brain ➜ Boom, code’s in clipboard

### ⏱ Setup Guide (Even Your Sleep-Deprived Brain Can Follow)

2. **Run these in terminal**

3. **Start the wizard:**

4. **Optional Bonus Round:**

### 🧠 What’s Really Going On

Behind the scenes, it stores your Gmail keys and settings in:

- `~/.automfa/` (basically a digital sock drawer full of secrets)
- Includes your tokens, config, accounts, and LLM choice
- If you’re fancy, you can edit things with a `.env` file—no need to restart setup

* * *

### ⚙ What Makes It Cool

- Works with local or online AI (Ollama or OpenAI)
- Handles many Gmail accounts
- Works on Mac, Windows, and Linux
- Keeps your Gmail clean and only sniffs for MFA emails
- Gives you one global command: `automfa`
- You press a button, and it does the smart thing™

### 🚨 Warnings (Because Life Isn’t Perfect)

- Gmail API limits: Poll too often and Google gives you the silent treatment
- Your settings are encrypted… but anyone with your laptop can still get them. So don’t lose it.
- No support. No help desk. No guarantee. If it breaks, go cry in the terminal.

* * *

### 🧪 Reality Check

- It’s new. Not many stars. No updates yet. No one holding your hand.
- Gmail is slowly ditching email-based MFA for passkeys and push prompts. This trick might become vintage soon.
- It’s a tool for today. Use it before Google bans fun.

### 🧻 Final Thought

Don’t waste 15 seconds staring at an email and typing 6 digits like a caveman.  
Use this. Let your keyboard pretend you’re smart.

OTP? Already in clipboard. Stay slow, peasant.
