routes.ts now reaches zero mutation survivors (30 mutants). The suite covered what the API refuses very thoroughly and what it REPORTS almost not at all, which is where all seven gaps were. The one that could destroy data: DELETE /api/v1/fingerprint/:fingerprint guards against deleting the profile the server is currently serving. Removing that guard entirely left the suite green -- the fixture only ever had one profile, so the guard was never exercisable. The test now seeds a second profile and asserts the pairing: the served one is refused, another is deleted. A refuse-everything implementation cannot pass it. The rest report vault state that nothing checked: - GET /api/v1/fingerprint's `current` flag. Inverted, every profile EXCEPT the served one is flagged, which a profile switcher shows straight to the user. Asserted as a pairing, since "at least one is current" survives the inversion. - GET /api/v1/vault/status's `locked`. Inverted, it reports locked while unlocked; the test also confirms the flag tracks something real by checking a locked vault refuses secrets. - GET /api/v1/high-risk/status, which had no test at all: the exact-expiry boundary, the tag-AND-unexpired conjunction (a stale expiry with no tag read as open), and the expires_at null decode. Built on its own context so the clock can be frozen. - POST /api/v1/entry with an empty totp `secret` must DERIVE one, not import the empty string as a key. An entry that looks like a second factor and is keyed on nothing. - GET /api/v1/totp/export must export a stored secret as stored and derive past a blank one. Inverted, every exported secret is still well-formed base32 -- so shape assertions pass while the codes are for another account. The fixture gains an entry with a present-but-empty secret, the shape a legacy or Python-written index can hold and the API cannot create. - POST /api/v1/high-risk/unlock answers 409 not_configured rather than falling through to 401 factor_invalid, which tells someone who never set a factor that the one they just chose is wrong. Two fixture counts were hardcoded literals; they now derive from the fixture, so adding an entry cannot silently weaken "no secrets in the listing" into "no secrets in an empty listing".

seedpass-js
The SeedPass command-line interface, TypeScript port.
It reads and writes the same ~/.seedpass profiles as the Python
implementation — same derivations, same vault format, same Nostr sync — and
adds a session agent plus a scoped-token surface designed for AI agents and
automation.
Install
Requires Node.js 22 or newer.
# from a checkout
cd js && pnpm install && pnpm --filter @seedpass/cli build
node packages/cli/dist/seedpass-js.mjs --version
The build produces one self-contained file (dist/seedpass-js.mjs) plus a
.sha256 next to it. Copy it anywhere on your PATH; it has no runtime
dependencies beyond Node itself.
Quick start
export SEEDPASS_APP_DIR=~/.seedpass # omit to use the default
# Create a profile (mnemonic and password come from the environment,
# never from the command line)
export SEEDPASS_MNEMONIC="your twelve or twenty-four words"
export SEEDPASS_PASSWORD="your master password"
seedpass-js fingerprint add --name main
unset SEEDPASS_MNEMONIC # not needed again
# Unlock once per session through the agent
seedpass-js agent start &
seedpass-js vault unlock --ttl 900
seedpass-js entry add password github.com --length 20 --username you
seedpass-js entry reveal github.com
seedpass-js entry totp-codes
seedpass-js use github.com --clipboard
seedpass-js vault lock
Design: reference-first output
Default output never contains secret values. Entries are addressed by
reference (sp://entry/<id>), and secret-bearing fields are reported as
has_* flags:
$ seedpass-js entry get api-token
{ "id": "5", "ref": "sp://entry/5", "label": "api-token",
"kind": "key_value", "has_value": true, ... }
Plaintext leaves the vault only through commands that say so
(entry reveal, entry totp-codes, entry export-document,
util generate-password), or through a sink, which delivers a secret to its
destination without routing it through this process's output:
seedpass-js use api-token --exec ./deploy.sh # SEEDPASS_SECRET in the child env
seedpass-js use api-token --stdin-to "wc -c" # quote specs that contain flags
seedpass-js use api-token --clipboard
Scoped tokens for agents
An agent can be given a token that grants exactly what it needs and nothing else. Secrets are materialized inside the session agent, so the token holder never receives the seed and can never escalate to owner operations.
# As the owner:
seedpass-js agent token-issue --scope read use \
--kind key_value --label-regex '^api-' --uses 2 --ttl 600
# In the agent's process — no mnemonic, no password:
export SEEDPASS_TOKEN=<token>
seedpass-js entry list # metadata only
seedpass-js use api-token --exec ./deploy.sh # permitted
seedpass-js entry reveal api-token # denied: scope 'reveal' not granted
# Back as the owner — every grant, delivery and denial is recorded:
seedpass-js agent audit-verify
seedpass-js agent audit-tail -n 20
Environment
| Variable | Purpose |
|---|---|
SEEDPASS_APP_DIR |
Profile directory (default ~/.seedpass) |
SEEDPASS_MNEMONIC |
Parent seed; needed for profile creation, otherwise use the agent |
SEEDPASS_PASSWORD |
Master password, for fingerprint add and vault unlock |
SEEDPASS_TOKEN |
Scoped token; puts the CLI in token mode |
SEEDPASS_AGENT_SOCK |
Override the agent socket path |
SEEDPASS_SECRET |
Set by use --exec in the child process only |
Compatibility
Interoperability with the Python implementation is verified on every change
by scripts/cross_impl_check.py: each side opens the other's profiles,
backups round-trip, edits are mutually visible, conflict merges agree, and a
snapshot published by Python restores here with secrets intact. See
docs/typescript_port_compatibility_matrix.md.
Not yet ported: PGP RSA keys (not byte-reproducible; ed25519 is at parity),
and the semantic and api command groups.
