Codifies the casual-style flourish (1-2 Spanish words/idioms per reply with [translation] brackets) as a project-level preference so it survives memory-system refactors. Replies only — never in code, files, or commit messages. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# CLAUDE.md — Relicario
|
||
|
||
## Working with the user
|
||
|
||
- **Default to "yes" / the recommended option.** When asking the user a multiple-choice or yes/no decision, pick the recommended answer and proceed without prompting. Optional follow-ups in checklists: do them. Subagent dispatch / running tests / writing code: proceed without checking.
|
||
- **Always pause and ask** before: `rm`, `rm -rf`, `git push --force`, `git reset --hard`, `git branch -D`, deleting files via Bash, dropping tables, force-pushing to main. The system-prompt's "executing actions with care" guidance still applies — this preference does not override that.
|
||
- This rule does not override genuine intent-discovery: brainstorming-skill clarifying questions about *what to build* still need user input, because picking a default would mean designing the wrong product.
|
||
- **Sprinkle Mexican Spanish into replies.** Drop 1–2 Spanish words, slang, exclamations, or idioms per reply (replies only — never in code, file contents, commit messages, or other project artifacts), each followed by `[translation]` in square brackets. Mexican flavor is preferred: ¡órale! [alright!], ¡híjole! [yikes!], ¿qué onda? [what's up?], chido [cool], ahorita [right now / in a bit], no manches [no way], ni modo [oh well], no hay bronca [no problem], ¡ya estuvo! [it's done], etc. Skip in one-word acknowledgements where the flourish would feel awkward.
|
||
|
||
## What is this
|
||
|
||
Relicario is a git-backed, self-hostable password manager with a Rust core. Two-factor vault decryption: passphrase + a reference JPEG carrying a 256-bit secret embedded via DCT steganography. The server only ever sees opaque ciphertext.
|
||
|
||
## Build and test
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cargo build # build everything
|
||
cargo test # run all tests (unit + integration)
|
||
cargo test -p relicario-core # core library tests only
|
||
cargo test -p relicario-cli --test basic_flows # CLI integration tests
|
||
cargo build -p relicario-wasm --target wasm32-unknown-unknown # WASM target
|
||
cargo run -p relicario-cli -- --help # CLI help
|
||
cargo run -p relicario-cli -- generate --length 32 # quick smoke test
|
||
```

||
## Key design decisions
|
||
|
||
- **relicario-core is bytes-in/bytes-out.** No filesystem, no network, no git operations. Makes it portable to WASM, Android, iOS.
|
||
- **XChaCha20-Poly1305** over AES-GCM — 192-bit nonce eliminates collision risk, fast in WASM/ARM without AES-NI.
|
||
- **Single master_key** (no per-entry subkeys) — simpler, sufficient for family vault sizes.
|
||
- **imgsecret uses central-embed DCT** — embeds only in the middle 70% of the image (15% crumple zone for crop tolerance), with majority voting across 5-50 redundant copies.
|
||
- **QUANT_STEP = 50.0** — higher than typical (25) to survive JPEG recompression down to Q85.
|
||
- **Device ed25519 keys are separate from the KDF.** Revoking a device doesn't require rotating the passphrase or reference image.
|
||
|
||
## Crypto pipeline
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
passphrase (UTF-8 bytes) || image_secret (32 bytes from reference JPEG)
|
||
→ Argon2id(salt=vault_salt, m=64MiB, t=3, p=4)
|
||
→ master_key (32 bytes)
|
||
→ XChaCha20-Poly1305(nonce=random 24 bytes)
|
||
→ encrypted Item/Manifest/VaultSettings
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Conventions
|
||
|
||
- Tests use fast Argon2id params (m=256, t=1, p=1) so they don't take forever.
|
||
- Test JPEGs are generated synthetically via `make_test_jpeg()` — no binary test fixtures.
|
||
- Item IDs are random 8-char hex strings.
|
||
- Git history is preserved as an audit log — no squashing.
|
||
- The CLI shells out to `git` for sync — no libgit2/gitoxide dependency.

||
## Roadmap
|
||
|
||
Next: WASM build + Chrome MV3 browser extension (Plan 2). Then mobile (Rust core compiles to ARM).
