About:
TotpCli is a command-line interface tool written in Go for managing and generating Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTP). It allows users to securely store their TOTP secrets locally and generate codes for two-factor authentication. The tool provides a lightweight, terminal-native alternative to graphical authenticator apps.
Key Features:
  • Secure local storage of TOTP secrets
  • Command-line generation of 2FA codes
  • Simple management (add, delete, list) of accounts
  • Written in Go for cross-platform compatibility
Use Cases:
  • Generating 2FA codes in headless server environments
  • Managing multiple TOTP seeds from the terminal
  • Using a CLI alternative to graphical authenticator apps
Alternatives:
  • pass-otp – Requires pass (standard unix password manager) and stores secrets within the pass ecosystem
  • google-authenticator – Official reference implementation; often used for PAM integration rather than direct CLI usage
