Cerebro OTP plugin
This plugin generates one-time authorization codes for use with any services that support Google Authenticator for two-step verification.
The codes are generated in the plugin and are never sent over the internet.
Code for generating the codes borrowed from otplib with minor modifications.
Tested to work on MacOS, Arch Linux, Windows 10.
