This is an interesting motivation for the project... I kind of get it, but, have you looked at fnox[0][1]? Curious how you'd compare/contrast goals with that if so, I think I prefer that as its not coupled to a single encryption tool (age) but supports age as well as multiple cloud or local options behind one unified interface... I think it can even mix multiple stores together? but I may be missing something/didn't read thoroughly yet...maybe there's a reason fnox doesn't work as well with Nix? fnox was discussed here previously[2]
It reads to me as "sex man" but aside from that, looks useful!

So is this like a encrypt tool where we pass an external key to encrypt and we can use other apps to decrypt since key is not embedded in the tool? Or am I understanding it wrong?

What advantages does this have compared to something like the .kdbx format invented by KeePass, which is open and implemented by many other open-source tools than KeePass itself?

If you're confident that Linux machines aren't going anywhere, the pass utility is a nice option.

This project is screaming for a pronunciation guide.
