On Macs with touch id, you can enable sudo via fingerprint reader for the local machine.

That's great for the the local machine..... what about the 80 servers I manage with ssh access? The vast majority of what I do is on remote servers.
I kind of solved this with salt stack. But i still have like 15 machines where cfg management is nogo. I will use built in pass manager there. But i am open to tips.
I agree that iterm2 password manager is great (i use it too).

I just wanted to mention the sudo-fingerprint feature for the local machine in case someone did not know.
