+    You can further restrict what is allowed in these windows by using
+    :option:`kitty @ launch --remote-control-password`.
+
+
+Fine grained permissions for remote control
+----------------------------------------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 0.26.0
+
+The :opt:`allow_remote_control` option discussed so far is a blunt
+instrument, granting the ability to any program running on your computer
+or even on remote computers via SSH the ability to use remote control.
+
+You can instead define remote control passwords that can be used to grant
+different levels of control to different places. You can even write your
+own script to decide which remote control requests are allowed. This is
+done using the :opt:`remote_control_password` option in :file:`kitty.conf`.
+Set :opt:`allow_remote_control` to :code:`password` to use this feature.
+Let's see some examples:
+
+.. code-block:: conf
+
+   remote_control_password "control colors" get-colors set-colors
+
+Now, using this password, you can, in scripts run the command::
+
+    kitty @ --password="control colors" set-colors background=red
+
+Any script with access to the password can now change colors in kitty using
+remote control, but only that and nothing else. You can even supply the
+password via the :envvar:`KITTY_RC_PASSWORD` environment variable, or the
+file :file:`~/.config/kitty/rc-password` to avoid having to type it repeatedly.
+See :option:`kitty @ --password-file` and :option:`kitty @ --password-env`.
+
+The :opt:`remote_control_password` can be specified multiple times to create
+different passwords with different capabilities. Run the following to get a
+list of all action names::
+
+    kitty @ --help
+
+You can even use glob patterns to match action names, for example:
+
+.. code-block:: conf
+
+   remote_control_password "control colors" *-colors
+
+If no action names are specified, all actions are allowed.
+
+If ``kitty @`` is run with a password that is not present in
+:file:`kitty.conf`, then kitty will interactively prompt the user to allow or
+disallow the remote control request. The user can choose to allow or disallow
+either just that request or all requests using that password. The user's
+decision is remembered for the duration of that kitty instance.
+
+.. note::
+   For password based authentication to work over SSH, you must pass the
+   :envvar:`KITTY_PUBLIC_KEY` environment variable to the remote host. The
+   :doc:`ssh kitten <kittens/ssh>` does this for you automatically. When
+   using a password, :ref:`rc_crypto` is used to ensure the password
+   is kept secure. This does mean that using password based authentication
+   is slower as the entire command is encrypted before transmission. This
+   can be noticeable when using a command like ``kitty @ set-background-image``
+   which transmits large amounts of image data. Also, the clock on the remote
+   system must match (within a few minutes) the clock on the local system.
+   kitty uses a time based nonce to minimise the potential for replay attacks.
+
+.. _rc_custom_auth:
+
+Customizing authorization with your own program
+____________________________________________________________
+
+If the ability to control access by action names is not fine grained enough,
+you can define your own Python script to examine every remote control command
+and allow/disallow it. To do so create a file in the kitty configuration
+directory, :file:`~/.config/kitty/my_rc_auth.py` and add the following
+to :file:`kitty.conf`:
+
+.. code-block:: conf

+
+The :command:`edit-in-kitty` command allows you to seamlessly edit files
+in your default :opt:`editor` in new kitty windows. This works even over
+SSH (if you use the :doc:`ssh kitten <kittens/ssh>`), allowing you
+to easily edit remote files in your local editor with all its bells and
+whistles.
+
+The :command:`edit-in-kitty` command takes almost all the same arguments as the
+:doc:`launch <launch>` command, so you can open a new tab instead or a new OS
+window, etc. Not all arguments are supported, see the discussion in the
+:ref:`clone_shell` section above.
+
+In order to avoid remote code execution, kitty will only execute the configured
+editor and pass the file path to edit to it.
