Universal Remote VFS: Direct zero-leakage client for SFTP/SSH, SMB/Windows Shares, NFS, S3 Cloud Storage, WebDAV, Proton Drive, and Hetzner Storage Box.
Zero-Knowledge Encrypted Vaults: Password-protected .cdvault containers with Argon2id + AES-256-GCM RAM-only virtual streaming (no plaintext ever touches disk).
