A secure command-line password manager written in Go that stores passwords locally using AES-256 encryption and protects access with a bcrypt-hashed master password.
This project was built to practice Go, cryptography, CLI application development, and clean software architecture.
- 🔒 AES-256 GCM Encryption
- 🔑 Master Password Authentication (bcrypt)
- 📁 Encrypted Local Vault
- ➕ Add Password Entries
- 📋 List Saved Accounts
- 👁 View Individual Entry
- ✏️ Update Existing Entries
- 🗑 Delete Entries
- 🔍 Search Entries
- 🎲 Secure Password Generator
- 📋 Copy Password to Clipboard
- 🎨 Colored Terminal Output
- ⚡ Interactive CLI using Cobra

go run .
go run . addor
go run . add \
--title GitHub \
--username anshu \
--password MyPassword123 \
--url https://github.com \
--notes "Personal Account"
go run . list

The password generator supports creating custom passwords using the following options.
| Use Case | Command |
|---|---|
| Generate a default 16-character password | go run . generate |
| Generate a 24-character password | go run . generate --length 24 |
| Generate a 32-character password | go run . generate --length 32 |
| Generate a password without symbols | go run . generate --symbols=false |
| Generate a password without numbers | go run . generate --numbers=false |
| Generate a password without uppercase letters | go run . generate --upper=false |
| Generate a password without lowercase letters | go run . generate --lower=false |
| Generate a password using only lowercase letters | go run . generate --upper=false --numbers=false --symbols=false |
| Generate a password using only uppercase letters | go run . generate --lower=false --numbers=false --symbols=false |
| Generate a numeric PIN (6 digits) | go run . generate --length 6 --upper=false --lower=false --symbols=false |
| Generate an alphanumeric password (letters + numbers) | go run . generate --symbols=false |
| Generate a symbols-only password | go run . generate --length 12 --upper=false --lower=false --numbers=false |
| Generate a letters-only password | go run . generate --numbers=false --symbols=false |
| Generate a strong 64-character password | go run . generate --length 64 |
