## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

Name That Hash is a Python hash-identification CLI and web app for mapping unknown hashes to likely algorithms and cracking-tool modes.

### Projektgeschichte

The repository was created on 2021-01-13, and PyPI release history begins with 0.0.1 on 2021-01-24. The project positioned itself as a modern successor to older hash identifiers, emphasizing popularity-ranked results, hash summaries, accessible output, JSON/API use, and Hashcat/John the Ripper mode information.

Release 1.10.0 on 2021-06-13 added more than 50 hashes and an automated test matrix for hash database correctness; release 1.11.0 on 2022-11-17 added and verified hash patterns including yescrypt, BitLocker, RACF, Argon2, and other community-contributed entries.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The project reached security distributions and package managers beyond PyPI. Its README lists REMnux, AUR, MacPorts, and Homebrew, and Kali documents the `name-that-hash` and `nth` binaries for identifying MD5, SHA256, and more than 300 other hash types.

Repository metadata consulted on 2026-07-01 showed 1,658 GitHub stars and 110 forks. Homebrew listed 348 installs over the prior 365 days, which is modest but plausible for a specialist CTF/forensics helper.

### Wie es verwendet wird

The practical loop is simple: pass one hash with `nth --text`, pass a newline-delimited file with `nth --file`, or use greppable/JSON output for automation. Kali's help output also documents base64 decoding, accessible mode, and an extreme mode that searches for hashes inside larger strings.

Package nerds use it before cracking: identify candidate formats, choose likely Hashcat or John modes, then feed those guesses into heavier cracking or forensic tooling. The JSON output makes it scriptable in pipelines.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

Name That Hash matters because it packages the messy regex database problem with better output priorities and cracking-tool context. It is not a cryptographic primitive; it is a triage tool that saves time before using Hashcat, John, or CTF tooling.
