## Project history and usage

Moribito is a small terminal LDAP explorer by Eric Schmar, published as a Go application built with Bubble Tea. Its README describes it as a terminal-based LDAP server explorer for browsing directory trees, viewing LDAP records, and running custom queries, with features such as paginated result browsing, clipboard support, SSL/TLS authentication, and multiple saved LDAP server configurations.

### How it is used

The project fits a narrow administrator and identity-engineering niche: it sits between raw ldapsearch-style command output and heavier graphical LDAP browsers. In the author's Show HN post, the motivation was daily LDAP query and validation work on macOS, where Apache Directory Studio was described as the main alternative but cumbersome for that workflow. In package-manager terms, the Homebrew formula exposes a single moribito executable for users who want an interactive TUI LDAP client rather than an LDAP server.
