The upstream repository currently presents the project as ciphey, a Rust successor in the Ciphey decoding-tool family, so the package history is best understood as a formula name and repository name that predate or diverge from the current upstream branding. ### Projektgeschichte The GitHub repository was created in August 2021. Public releases begin with 0.0.1, 'The Founding of Thebes', in July 2022, followed by a run of mythologically named 0.x releases through 2022 and later 0.10 and 0.11 releases. The Cargo manifest now names the package and binary `ciphey`, describes it as 'Ciphey but in Rust', and points at the same author ecosystem. ### Adoptionsgeschichte Homebrew keeps the formula name `ares`, builds from the bee-san/Ares release archive, and tests the installed `ares` binary by decoding a base64 string. The input record also notes packaging in Debian, Ubuntu, MacPorts, Nix, and winget, indicating broader CLI packaging despite the upstream branding ambiguity. ### Wie es verwendet wird The current README describes a decoder workflow aimed at automatically recovering plaintext without the user specifying every cipher step. It emphasizes a CLI plus library split, a timer to avoid endless searches, multi-level decoding, plaintext detection, and integrations such as a Discord bot. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren For package nerds, Ares is interesting less as a stable brand than as a packaging edge case: Homebrew exposes `ares`, while upstream source metadata now says `ciphey`. It is also a Rust rewrite/next-generation branch of a popular decoder idea, so package records need to preserve the formula identity without erasing the upstream rename signal. ### Zeitleiste - 2021: GitHub repository created. - 2022: 0.0.1 release published as 'The Founding of Thebes'. - 2023: v0.10.0 'Amphitrite' release published. - 2025: 0.11.0 release published and packaged by Homebrew as Ares. ### Related projects - The README explicitly links the project to Ciphey and says it was built by the same people. It also mentions LemmeKnow, PyWhat, Rayon, cipher_identifier, and gibberish-or-not as parts of the decoding and plaintext-detection ecosystem. ### Quellen - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** blue / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Debian apt - ares - 134+dfsg-1+b1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: ares from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Accurate multi-system emulator | https://ares-emu.net - Nix - ares: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/ar/ares/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Ubuntu apt - ares - 134+dfsg-1build2: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: ares from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Accurate multi-system emulator | https://ares-emu.net - MacPorts - ares: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: security/ares/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - winget - Ares.Ares: normalized package name match | Windows Package Manager source index: Ares.Ares from https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix - winget - ares-emulator.ares: normalized package name match | Windows Package Manager source index: ares-emulator.ares from https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix - winget - bee-san.Ares: normalized package name match | Windows Package Manager source index: bee-san.Ares from https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
