Password manager for the command-line that aims to offer a secure and private way of operating with sensitive information by reducing the attack surface to its minimum expression.

• Cross-Platform: Linux, macOS, BSD, Windows and mobile supported.
• Private: Self-hosted and completely offline, no connection is established with 3rd parties.
• Secure: Each record is encrypted using AES-GCM with 256 bit key and a unique password derived using Argon2 (id version). The user's master password is never stored on disk, it's encrypted and temporarily held in-memory inside a protected buffer, which is destroyed immediately after use.
• Sessions: Run multiple commands by entering the master password only once. They support setting a timeout and running custom scripts.
• Portable: Both kure and its database compile to binary files and they can be easily carried around in an external device.
• Easy-to-use: Intuitive, does not require advanced technical skills.

Out-of-the-box kure needs no configuration, it creates a file with the default configuration and the database at:

• Linux, BSD: $HOME/.kure
• Darwin: $HOME/.kure or /.kure
• Windows: %USERPROFILE%/.kure

However, to store the configuration file elsewhere or use a different one, set the path to it in the KURE_CONFIG environment variable.

Head over to the configuration documentation for a detailed explanation of the configuration file and some samples.
