Hi! One of the OpenAPPA authors here. Ask me anything!

My favorite part of APPA is “batteries”: you can run arbitrary programs as part of an authorization decision. For example, a battery could call the GitHub API to check whether a repository is public or private, then use that result to decide whether its contents can be posted to Slack.
