Description

Detects when a YubiKey is waiting for a physical touch and can notify the desktop or other tools. It helps users notice pending hardware-token prompts that might otherwise be missed during authentication or signing.

It does not authenticate by itself and should not be treated as a security policy. It only reports touch-needed state from supported YubiKey interactions.
