Description

TTY passphrase reading helps command-line applications ask for sensitive secrets without echoing them back to the terminal. It is useful for encryption tools, login helpers, signing utilities, and administrative scripts.

This is an input-handling library, not a password store. Applications must still protect memory, logs, prompts, and downstream use of the passphrase.
