kure

Kure is a command-line password manager designed for users who prioritize security and privacy. It operates completely offline with no third-party connections, making it ideal for those who want full control over their sensitive data. Each password record is encrypted using AES-GCM with 256-bit keys and unique passwords derived through Argon2, ensuring robust protection of stored information.

The tool excels in portability and ease of use, compiling to binary files that can be easily carried on external devices. Kure supports session management, allowing users to enter their master password once and run multiple commands with optional timeouts and custom scripts. The master password is never stored on disk and is only held temporarily in protected memory buffers that are immediately destroyed after use.

Kure is cross-platform, supporting Linux, macOS, BSD, Windows, and mobile devices, making it suitable for developers, system administrators, and security-conscious users who need a reliable, self-hosted password management solution. Its intuitive design doesn't require advanced technical skills, while still providing enterprise-grade security features for those who demand the highest level of data protection.
