    somehow stumbled across this HN post while searching for a pass-tomb alternative.

    pass-coffin is a great utility! At home I'm using pass-tomb, which does the job pretty well, except the fact that the timer functionality is kinda broken (won't stop the timer when closing a tomb) and that entering sudo password for mounting is pretty annoying (so in total you've got to authenticate twice, one time for tomb and then for gpg decryption as well), especially when working with multiple password stores... My work laptop however is running Windows (no admin and no WSL), therefore pass-coffin is the only option and it's been doing a great job so far! I'm thinking of switching over my home setup to coffin as well
