VaultCLI

A local-only password and secret manager with a 1Password-style CLI (`vault get`, `vault add`, `vault sync`), backed by an encrypted SQLite file.

Target market
Solo indie devs, security-conscious freelancers, and tiny teams who want CLI-first secret management without a SaaS account or a self-hosted Docker stack.

Problem snapshot

What this solves

1Password is $3/mo per user and stores everything in their cloud; the CLI requires login through a hosted account. Bitwarden self-host technically works but ships as a heavy Docker stack with MSSQL, IdentityServer, and an admin panel that is overkill for a solo dev who just wants `op read` from the terminal.
