history
Project history and usage
enpass-cli is a Go command-line client for the Enpass password manager, exposing vault listing, password display, copy, creation, editing, trash, restore, and delete operations.
Project history
The hazcod/enpass-cli repository was created in September 2016. The README describes it as a command-line utility for Enpass and documents compiled binaries from the GitHub releases page.
Adoption history
The input package metadata lists Homebrew and Nix packages. Homebrew currently tracks the v1.12.0 GitHub source archive.
How it is used
Users point the CLI at an Enpass vault with -vault=PATH and can pass -keyfile=PATH for a vault keyfile. Commands include list, show, copy, pass, create, edit, trash, restore, delete, dryrun, version, and help.
Why package nerds care
The package is notable for password-manager users who want scriptable terminal access to Enpass data while keeping the vault path explicit rather than storing a documented global configuration file.
