**hack-house** is a multi-user, end-to-end-encrypted terminal session. A small
crew shares an encrypted chat room and, when summoned, a disposable sandboxed
Linux box they drive together — with real Linux users, an owner who delegates
the keys, and file transfer in between.
Fork from https://github.com/diorwave/cmd-chat
A privacy- and security-oriented chatroom, with file sharing and shared terminal
sessions on top. For sharing. For learning. For hacking. For building. For demos.
For teaching. For mentorship — for the people who don't want to trust
corporations to manage their data and communications.
This tool a privacy and security oriented chatroom that we added file sharing as well as shared terminal sessions.
The server never sees plaintext. Messages, files, and terminal output are all
relayed as opaque ciphertext. Close the window and the house empties — nothing
is written to disk on the server.

Encrypted chat that runs in your terminal. You host the server, you control the room. Close the window — everything's gone. Messages and files are encrypted client-side before the server ever sees them.
