(Hi, dangerzone maintainer here) There is indeed a dangerzone-cli tool¹, and it should be made more visible. We plan on updating/consolidating our docs in the foreseeable future, to make things clearer. Also, plans are here to make it possible to use dangerzone as a library, which should help use cases like the one you mention. ¹ https://github.com/freedomofpress/dangerzone/blob/main/dangerzone/cli.py
