Capsus

CLI toolbox containing all CLI tools I have made in one binary.

Capsus bundles three terminal tools, Munus, Cryptare and Salus, into a single capsus command for people who use them together. Running capsus will open a menu that lists the tools with a short description; selecting a tool launches that tool's own terminal UI (TUI), and a tool without a TUI says so.

Status: in preparation. The tools are not imported yet and the capsus binary does not exist. Everything under "Planned" below describes Plan 1, which is awaiting review. The build, test and release tooling in this repository already targets that layout.

Bundled tools (planned)

Tool	What it does	TUI	Source
Munus	Terminal task manager: tasks with deadlines, statuses and tags in a local SQLite database	Yes	jabbott-iii/Munus
Cryptare	Encrypt, decrypt, compress and extract files and folders; manage password-protected keys	Yes	jabbott-iii/Cryptare
Salus	Environment health checker: disk, memory, CPU, Docker, Kubernetes, services and certificates, with PASS/WARN/FAIL results	No (CLI only)	jabbott-iii/Salus

Each tool's own README is the reference for its commands and options.

Planned features

Not implemented yet; see intel/plan.md, decisions D-5 and D-6.

• capsus: menu TUI listing each tool, its description and whether it has a TUI. Enter launches the tool's TUI and returns to the menu when it exits; for Salus the menu says it has no TUI.
• capsus list: the same list as plain text, for scripts.
• capsus munus|cryptare|salus [args...]: runs that tool's CLI with the arguments unchanged and exits with the tool's exit code. A tool's help shows the tool's own name (for example munus add).
• capsus --vim: opens the menu and passes --vim to Munus and Cryptare.
• capsus --version: the Capsus version and the bundled tool versions.

Prerequisites

For building from source and running the checks:

• Go 1.26 (CI uses the latest 1.26 patch release)
• A C compiler: every tool stores data with mattn/go-sqlite3, which needs CGO
• GNU Make, bash and git
• Docker, only for make docker-static (needs the planned Dockerfile)

Installation

There is no release yet. Once the import lands, build from source:

git clone https://github.com/jabbott-iii/Capsus.git
cd Capsus
make build    # writes bin/capsus

Until then, make build stops with a message pointing to intel/plan.md. Release archives will be published on the GitHub Releases page by the CD workflow; go install …@latest is not supported because the root module uses replace directives for the tool folders.

Configuration

Planned: the bundled tools keep their own configuration, so Capsus and the standalone binaries share data. The main settings are the database locations:

Variable	Tool	Purpose
MUNUS_DB_PATH	Munus	Path of the task database
CRYPTARE_DB_PATH	Cryptare	Path of the key database
SALUS_DB_PATH	Salus	Path of the scan-history database

When unset, each tool uses its default location in the per-user data directory; see each tool's README for details and further options.

Testing and quality checks

Run make (or make help) for the full list. The main targets run in every module, the launcher at the root and each tool folder:

make check        # what CI runs: layout, key-material check, gofmt, go mod tidy, vet, golangci-lint, race tests, smoke test
make check-all    # check plus gosec, govulncheck and actionlint
make test         # tests only
make smoke        # build bin/capsus and run scripts/smoke.sh against it
make deps-drift   # report dependencies the capsus build uses at other versions than a tool's go.mod
make tool TOOL=Cryptare TARGET=golden   # run one of a tool's own Makefile targets (release targets refused)
