Very nice project, thank you for sharing it on HN! May I ask why login is required, and how are emails/passwords stored?

An account is necessary to couple your devices to your wall. And auth is implemented via Better-Auth. I stopped Codex immediately when he tried to implement the login stuff from scratch. :)
