Kisee — Identity Provider Server

Kisee is an open-source HTTP API server published by Melty Group that exchanges valid username/password pairs for JSON Web Tokens, and nothing else. It is self-hosted software, not a Melty-operated public API: you install it from PyPI and run it yourself against your own identity backend (LDAP, PostgreSQL, a flat file, or any backend you implement as a Python class). Responses are CoreJSON hypermedia documents. Last released to PyPI as 21.9.0 in September 2021. No OpenAPI, AsyncAPI or GraphQL SDL is published for it.
