touchlab-license-server

The local license check for touchlab-slip-model. It is installed automatically with that package; you don't need to install it yourself.

Before each run, touchlab-slip-detect asks it which connected fingertips are licensed and how many days each license has left. It runs as a small background service for your user, starts on its own when needed, and only listens on a local socket, never on the network.

Commands

touchlab-license-server list     # every license, whether it's valid, days left
touchlab-license-server status   # is the service running?
touchlab-license-server sync     # re-read the license folder now
touchlab-license-server stop     # stop the service

list output:

TL50140B9E...  licensed=True  expires_at=2026-12-25T10:00:00Z  (88 day(s) left)

Every check re-verifies the license's signature, so editing a license file can't make it valid.

On Linux, to start the service at login instead of on first use:

touchlab-license-server install-service
systemctl --user daemon-reload
systemctl --user enable --now touchlab-license-server

It listens on a Unix socket on Linux, and on a 127.0.0.1 port on Windows.

Logs: ~/.local/share/touchlab/license_server/server.log on Linux, %LOCALAPPDATA%\touchlab\license_server\server.log on Windows.
