💖 NAME 💖

/omemo — that's the whole vibe. It's the Profanity /omemo command, and this page? It's man(1), the manual page itself, living in the Profanity XMPP client universe. Bestie, we're about to get into it. 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

OMEMO commands, aka your little toolkit for managing keys 🔑 and doing encryption during chat sessions. That's the whole point of showing up.

And the title bar? She's a snitch, and we love her for it — she'll show your OMEMO session status like this:

  • [OMEMO][trusted] — All active devices for the contact are trusted. ✨ slay
  • [OMEMO][untrusted] — One or more active devices for the contact are untrusted. 😭 not slay

👑 ARGUMENTS 👑

  • gen — Generate OMEMO cryptographic materials for the current account. Fresh keys, freshly generated, no cap. ✨
  • start [<contact>] — Start an OMEMO session with contact, or with the current recipient if you just… don't feel like typing who. 💅
  • end — End the current OMEMO session. That's it, that's the girl. Goodbye forever (until you start again).
  • log on|off — Enable or disable plaintext logging of OMEMO encrypted messages. Toggle it, bestie. ⚡
  • log redact — Log the OMEMO encrypted messages, but replace the contents with [redacted]. Mysterious. Iconic. The censor bar of it all. 🕶️
  • trust [<contact>] <fp> — Trust a fingerprint for a contact, or the current recipient if you omit contact. And here's the tea: if all active devices are trusted, the title bar shows [trusted]. Otherwise it shows [untrusted]. The title bar is watching. 👀
  • untrust [<contact>] <fp> — Untrust a fingerprint for a contact, or the current recipient if omitted. It's giving… consequences. 💔
  • fingerprint [<contact>] — Show the contact's fingerprints — or the current recipient's, if you left contact out of it.
  • char <char> — Set the character displayed next to OMEMO encrypted messages. Customize your little marker, you deserve it. 🎀
  • trustmode manual — Set the global OMEMO trust mode to manual: OMEMO keys has to be trusted manually. You're the main character, you do the work. 💪
  • trustmode firstusage — Set the global OMEMO trust mode to ToFu: the first OMEMO keys trusted automatically. Trust on first usage, no questions asked. 🫶
  • trustmode blind — Set the global OMEMO trust mode to blind: ALL OMEMO keys trusted automatically. Every single one. Zero suspicion. Vibe check: passed by default. 🙈
  • policy manual — Set the global OMEMO policy to manual: OMEMO sessions must be started manually.
  • policy automatic — Set the global OMEMO policy to opportunistic: an OMEMO session will be attempted upon starting a conversation.
  • policy always — Set the global OMEMO policy to always: an error will be displayed if an OMEMO session cannot be initiated upon starting a conversation. It's ✨always✨ or it's an error, periodt.
  • clear_device_list — Clear your own device list on server side. Each client will reannounce itself when connected back. It's giving spring cleaning. 🧹
  • qrcode — Display a QR code of your OMEMO fingerprint. Scan me, bestie. 📱
