Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Deterministic password generation core logic

Readme

@zaeniahmad/kpwgen

Generate secure, reproducible passwords with absolute consistency. As long as your inputs remain the same, the result is bit-identical. Works 100% offline, no telemetry, no network calls.

✨ Features

  • Deterministic: Same input ⇒ same output, always.
  • Cryptographically secure: HMAC-based derivation (SHA-2).
  • Offline: No external requests.
  • Configurable: Prefix, suffix, target length, normalization.
  • Isomorphic: Works in Node.js and Browser.
  • No storage: Does not save secrets or passwords.

📦 Installation

npm install @zaeniahmad/kpwgen
# or
yarn add @zaeniahmad/kpwgen
# or
pnpm add @zaeniahmad/kpwgen

⚡️ Quick Start

ESM (Node.js / Browser)

import { generatePassword } from "@zaeniahmad/kpwgen";

const pwd = await generatePassword({
  masterSecret: process.env.MASTER_SECRET!,
  platform: "google",
  version: 1,
  lengthTarget: 18,
  prefix: "Qx9",
  suffix: "K7",
  normalize: true,
});

console.log(pwd);

🧠 How It Works

  1. Normalize: Clean platform input.
  2. Derive: Create message from {platform, version}.
  3. HMAC: Compute SHA-256 HMAC with masterSecret.
  4. Encode: Convert digest to base32/charset.
  5. Shape: Apply length, prefix, suffix.

🧩 API

generatePassword(options: GenOptions): Promise<string>

Options

  • masterSecret: string – Required.
  • platform: string – Required.
  • version?: number – Default 1.
  • prefix?: string
  • suffix?: string
  • lengthTarget?: number – Default 18.
  • normalize?: boolean – Default true.

Utilities

  • normalizePlatform(raw: string): string
  • toBase32(buf: Uint8Array): string

🔒 Security Best Practices

  • Never hardcode masterSecret.
  • Use version for rotation.
  • Add policy rules for site-specific requirements.
  • Avoid storing secrets in local storage.

🧪 Testing

npm run lint
npm test

Example:

import { generatePassword } from "@zaeniahmad/kpwgen";
import { describe, it, expect } from "vitest";

describe("deterministic", () => {
  it("same input, same output", async () => {
    const a = await generatePassword({ masterSecret: "a", platform: "github", version: 1 });
    const b = await generatePassword({ masterSecret: "a", platform: "github", version: 1 });
    expect(a).toBe(b);
  });
});

📚 FAQ

Why not use a normal password manager?

Stateless & reproducible. No sync needed.

Does it work offline?

Yes.

Can I enforce special characters?

Yes, via prefix/suffix or post-processing.
