About:
kpcli is a command-line interface for managing KeePass password databases. It provides a comprehensive shell-like environment for navigating database structures, viewing and editing entries, and performing batch operations. This tool enables secure password management without requiring a graphical user interface, making it ideal for remote server administration.
Key Features:
  • Interactive shell with tab completion
  • Full CRUD operations for entries/groups
  • Support for KeePass 1.x and 2.x database formats
  • Scriptable commands for automation
  • Secure in-memory handling of sensitive data
Use Cases:
  • Managing passwords on headless servers via SSH
  • Automating password database updates with scripts
  • Quickly searching and retrieving credentials from terminal
Alternatives:
  • pass – Unix password manager using GPG, simpler but less feature-rich for KeePass format
  • keepassxc-cli – Official CLI from KeePassXC project, more modern but requires KeePassXC database format
