Flux-Tui is a terminal-based encrypted vault. Your files stay on your machine — fully local, zero telemetry, military-grade encryption.
Free forever. No account. No setup required beyond Python and one pip install.
Not another cloud wrapper. Flux-Tui is a proper cryptographic vault — now with full-text search, TOTP, import, a local API, and a tamper-evident audit chain.
Industry-standard authenticated encryption. Every file gets a unique 96-bit IV. GCM auth tag detects tampering on every decrypt — not just corruption.
Your master password is hardened with scrypt N=2¹⁷ before any key is derived. Brute force is computationally infeasible — even at nation-state scale.
search /query decrypts every file in the background and scans for your query with line-number hits and highlighted snippets. Find "which file has my AWS key" in seconds.
totp add GitHub <secret> stores your 2FA secrets encrypted in the vault. totp shows all live codes with a countdown bar. Codes turn red when expiring.
One command to import from Bitwarden JSON, KeePass CSV, or 1Password CSV. Each entry becomes its own encrypted file. Switching vaults takes 30 seconds.
Every encrypt, decrypt, and import event is logged in a SHA-256 hash chain. Each entry covers all previous entries — deletion or modification of any record is instantly detectable.
serve starts 127.0.0.1:27182 with a one-time session token. Browser extensions and scripts can search and copy to clipboard without re-entering your key.
Ctrl+P opens a fuzzy launcher for both vault files and commands. Tab switches between modes. Type tot to jump to TOTP. Type rep to find report.pdf. Never leave the keyboard.
When you copy a decrypted secret, the status bar shows CLIPBOARD CLEARS IN 23s and counts down in real time. Configurable delay. Automatic wipe — no manual clearing needed.
Full-screen interface with inline editor, drag-and-drop encrypt, vault tags, batch import, and an in-terminal file browser. Runs over SSH — your vault follows you to any machine.
Set a 4-6 digit passcode for the idle timeout lock screen. Master key unlocks on startup; passcode handles re-entry after inactivity. Configurable timeout, lockout after 3 wrong attempts.
Phantom, Matrix, Neon, Ocean, Aurora, Inferno and 16 more. Animated colour palettes that breathe and pulse. All themes are high-contrast with verified readable accent colours.
Cloud encryption tools can be subpoenaed, breached, or shut down. Flux-Tui has no server to attack — your vault is just files on your drive.
We cannot recover your password. There is no reset flow, no recovery email, no escrow. If you forget it, the data is gone. That's the point.
Every line of code is public. Security through obscurity is not security. Read it, compile it, audit it yourself.
No tiers. No subscription. No premium features. The full tool, forever, for anyone.
The full TUI renders over SSH sessions. Every feature — search, TOTP, editor, themes — works on any remote machine you connect to. No install required on the server.
Flux-Tui is built and maintained solo. If it's saved you time or stress, a small donation goes a long way.
