peer-to-peer encrypted chat that runs in your terminal. you host, you control. close the window — everything's gone.
whyevery "secure" messenger still stores metadata somewhere. this doesn't. it's just two terminals talking over an encrypted tunnel. nothing written to disk, ever.

SRP (Secure Remote Password) — password is never sent over the network. both sides prove they know it via zero-knowledge proof, then derive identical session keys.
