chapose (security/chapose) Updated: 2 days, 1 hour ago Add to my watchlist
High-performance cross-platform file security tool.Chapose is a modern, high-performance file encryption CLI based on ChaCha20-Poly1305 (AEAD), designed for strong confidentiality and integrity verification in real-world workflows. It uses a streaming architecture to process very large files with low memory overhead, avoids loading full plaintext into memory, and provides clear failure signals on authentication mismatch. Chapose supports password- and keyfile-based operation, plus seamless environment-variable driven usage for automation.

Port notes
Best practice:
1) Generate and store a dedicated keyfile in a protected location.
2) Set strict permissions for the keyfile (for example: chmod 400).
3) Configure the CHAPOSE_KEYFILE environment variable for seamless
encrypt/decrypt operations.
Workflow automation:
For production pipelines, pair chapose with ft:filetools to automate
archive -> encrypt -> secure wipe flows using YAML tasks and ft shell.
