pasejo is a command line password manager written in Rust.
It’s a reimplementation of passage designed for teams, using age keys for encryption and decryption while storing passwords locally. The project offers a simple terminal interface, but the developer notes that it isn’t intended for production use because it relies on the age crate, which is currently in beta.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Supports multiple password stores with multiple recipients and identities.
- Works with SSH and age keys as identities and recipients.
- Stores text-based secrets as well as one-time passwords using TOTP and HOTP.
- Offers clipboard support for secrets and one-time passwords.
- Provides shell completions for bash, elvish, fish, powershell, and zsh.
- Can execute automated commands before and after reading or writing secrets and passwords.
- Cross-platform software – runs under Linux, macOS, and Windows.
