Since I'm starting to purge gpg out of my life, but do depend on it heavily for keeping my org notes and authinfo encrypted, I needed an epa/epg-style transparent encryption support for age (https://github.com/FiloSottile/age). As such I ported the relevant epa/epg code and reworked it to work with age.
I wanted to reduce the amount of key management in my life to the bare minimum. I don't use gpg for its intended purpose (maintaining a web of trust with folks that you communicate with), but rather only use it for Emacs file encryption and things like password-store (which I'm replacing with https://github.com/FiloSottile/passage and will also port the Emacs pass frontend to work with).
So with age I can also just use my ssh public key to encrypt and my ssh private key to decrypt my files. If I want to get fancy, I can use something like https://github.com/str4d/age-plugin-yubikey to provide the key material for my age operations (which should compose with age.el quite well also, i.e. you can have every decrypt operation have a touch requirement in Emacs that way).
I just added rage (https://github.com/str4d/rage) support, which does support pinentry, see https://github.com/anticomputer/age.el#known-issues for an example of how to use rage instead.
GPG is empirically less than stellar in terms of footguns and the many ways you you can misuse it out of the box. There's a reason why the README for e.g. https://github.com/drduh/YubiKey-Guide is about 10 times as long as the Age based equivalent. Complexity.
I think it's ironic that you imply a "dozen of immature crypto libraries" are used in the Age spec. It's quite the opposite and the Age spec provides a reduction in so-called "yolo crypto" versus the OpenPGP spec. See: https://github.com/C2SP/C2SP/blob/main/age.md and also give https://latacora.micro.blog/2019/07/16/the-pgp-problem.html# for a pretty accurate overview of what's wrong with OpenPGP.
heya nice :) yeah age.el works over TRAMP just fine since it's basically a port of epg. I needed something that was a drop in replacement for the existing .gpg handling in emacs which is why it's a port instead of a new mode. I have a PR out to MELPA at https://github.com/melpa/melpa/pull/8342 so it should be available in MELPA soon.
