Show HN: TrueLock – secure messages as encrypted files with unlock rules

I built TrueLock for “secure messaging without a messenger”.

Instead of sending plaintext in chat, you wrap a message (and attachments) into a single encrypted capsule file (.cfcaps) and share it via any channel (Telegram/email/drive/USB). The recipient opens the file in the app.

What’s different vs “just encrypt a file” is that the unlock policy travels with the ciphertext:

time window

geo radius

password (Argon2id)

visual key (optional)

AND/OR logic across rules

Current clients: Android + Windows. Crypto: AEAD (AES-GCM / ChaCha20-Poly1305).

Threat-model boundary: policy checks are local; a fully compromised endpoint can bypass checks or exfiltrate plaintext after legitimate open.

I’d value technical feedback on:

threat-model clarity

strongest real use case

what trust artifact you’d want next (format spec, test vectors, reproducible builds)
