Description
Keybase GUI Version: 1.0.14-20160225170013+af685e9
The GUI keeps popping up a dialog every hour or so asking for my password. I don't feel super comfortable putting my password in my keychain, so maybe that would fix it? I'll try that next time.
Though, it kinda feels like if the program is sitting there running and I haven't logged out or restarted then it should be able to hold my password for a while. Unless the expiration is a feature?

Research direction
The report names only Keybase GUI version 1.0.14 and provides no file, test, or entry point. Start by reproducing the hourly password prompt and investigating session expiration or keychain behavior; done means the unexpected repeated prompts are fixed or the intended expiration behavior is clearly established.
