Show HN: A CLI Frontend for HashiCorp Vault's Shamir's Secret Sharing
It gives a nod to https://github.com/kinvolk/go-shamir but doesn't go further to say why a whole new project is required; is there some story there?
Related to that, one will observe the kinvolk repo has tests -- are those still pending?

How to Share a Secret [pdf]
I've been working on something similar to what you described[^1], using Shamir secret sharing to split the TOTP secret. Once enough key holders get together, a server generates some TOTP tokens, but only for a limited period of time.
I wanted to use it in an enterprise environment to limit the access to AWS root users in a break-glass scenario. Now I no longer have such need and haven't developed it further, but the core features are there. As usual though with this kind of tools, any security problem becomes a key management problem and it'd need a bit more work to use it in the real world.
