Smart Password Generator CLI (C#)

• Zero-Storage Security — no passwords or secret phrases are ever stored or transmitted
• Decentralized Architecture — no central servers, no cloud dependency
• Deterministic Generation — same secret + same length = same password, every time
• Memory-Based Security — your brain is the only password database
• Cross-Platform — Windows, Linux support
• Multi-Mode Generation — smart passwords, strong random, auth codes, public keys, verification

• Decentralized & Serverless — no central database, no cloud lock-in
• Smart Password Generation — deterministic from secret phrase
• Dynamic Iteration Counts — 15-30 for private key, 45-60 for public key
• Public Key Generation — generate verification key from secret
• Secret Verification — verify secret against public key
• Strong Random Passwords — cryptographically secure random passwords
• Authentication Codes — short codes for 2FA/MFA (4-100 chars)
• Interactive Mode — menu-driven interface for easy use
• Command-Line Mode — scriptable generation for automation
• Hidden Input — secret phrase entry with asterisks masking

Powered by smartpasslib-csharp — C# implementation of deterministic password generation.

Key derivation (same as Python/JS/Kotlin/Go versions v4.0.0):

Character Set (Google-compatible):

!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{};:,.<>?/ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

Validation Rules: Secret phrase: min 12 chars · Password length: 12-100 chars · Code: 4-100 chars

Pre-built Binaries (no .NET required):

Just download, run in terminal, and start using.

# Windows
SmartPasswordGeneratorCsharpCli-win-x64.exe

# Linux

# Generate public key from secret
SmartPasswordGeneratorCsharpCli public "MyStrongSecretPhrase2026!"

# Verify secret against public key
SmartPasswordGeneratorCsharpCli verify "MyStrongSecretPhrase2026!" "a1b2c3d4..."

# Show help

Security Model:

• Proof of Knowledge — public keys verify secrets without exposing them
• Decentralized Trust — no third party needed
• Deterministic Certainty — mathematical certainty in password regeneration
• Ephemeral Passwords — passwords exist only in memory during generation
• Local Computation — no data leaves your device
• No Recovery Backdoors — lost secret = permanently lost passwords

Secret Phrase Requirements:

• Minimum 12 characters (enforced)
• Case-sensitive
• Use mix of: uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols
• Never store digitally
• NEVER use your password description as secret phrase

Strong Secret Examples:

✅ "MyStrongSecretPhrase2026!"   — mixed case + numbers + symbols
✅ "P@ssw0rd!LongSecret"         — special chars + numbers + length
✅ "КотБегемот2026НаДиете"       — Cyrillic + numbers

Weak Secret Examples (avoid):

❌ "short"                       — too short, rejected
❌ "password"                    — dictionary word, too short
❌ "1234567890"                  — only digits, too short
❌ "qwerty123"                   — keyboard pattern
