Yeah, it was called Openhost for a while before changing to Cloud in a Bottle. Either filename works.

It proxies requests from the user to installed apps, and adds a header 'is-owner'. Apps have to be built to respect that header - some apps do this by running their own little proxy/sidecar that will detect that header and inject saved credentials.
