+        Setting up D-Bus proxies and signal connections.
+
+        This is automatically called after the object is initialized and performs the following tasks:
+
+        1. Establishes a connection to the D-Bus session bus.
+        2. Creates D-Bus proxies for interacting with the `org.pantalaimon1` service.
+        3. Connects various signals to their respective handler methods.

+
+        Attributes:
+            bus (Gio.DBusConnection): The D-Bus connection to the session bus.
+            pan_bus (Gio.DBusProxy): Proxy for the main control interface of the `org.pantalaimon1` service.

+            completer (PanCompleter): Instance of `PanCompleter` for command completion.
+
+        Signal Handlers:
+            - `show_response`: Handles responses from the control interface.
+            - `unverified_devices`: Handles unverified device signals.
+            - `show_sas_invite`: Handles SAS (Short Authentication String) invite signals.
+            - `show_sas`: Handles SAS display signals.
+            - `sas_done`: Handles SAS completion signals.
+            - `show_key_request`: Handles key request signals.
