Description

Runs commands as root or another user through a small doas implementation. It is used as a simpler privilege-escalation tool where policy is defined in configuration files.

Use it only when the system's privilege policy is understood and reviewed. Incorrect rules can grant broad administrative access, so configuration should be minimal and explicit.

How to run
