+# pass-cache
+
+A simple daemon that caches the response from `pass my_entry`.
+For use with software that makes frequent calls to `pass`.
+
+## build
+
+```
+gcc passcached.c -o passcached
+gcc pass-cache.c -o pass-cache
+```
+
+## usage
+
+Start `passcached` in the background.
+Use `pass-cache` instead of `pass` to retrieve a secret.
+You will only need to unlock your keyring for the first invocation of `pass-cache` for a given entry; subsequent requests are served from the cache.
+The socket used for communication defaults to `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/pass-cache.sock`; this can be manually set with `PASS_CACHE_SOCK`.
