kirakira
A mobile client for Smol Mail, a minimalist end-to-end encrypted mail protocol: one Ed25519 identity, five operations, sealed and signed messages over a Noise_NX transport. Sibling of the reference CLI client (https://smol.place) and the browser client (https://code.randogoth.com/randogoth/gsmol).
kirakira began as FlashMail, a Flutter UI template for a disposable-email app built on mail.tm. Its networking layer was replaced end to end with a from-scratch Smol Mail implementation (lib/smol/: crypto, Noise handshake, framing, client flows), and the UI was redesigned around a Material 3 theme — dark navy and mint green by default, with a matching light theme — built from a single ColorScheme and AppColors extension rather than hardcoded colors per screen.
What it does
- Create or restore an identity from a 32-byte seed — that's the only secret.
- Pin a server's key, register or recall an address, then fetch and send sealed mail.
- Trust-on-first-use for server and contact keys, with rotation support and on-screen warnings for anything unverified.
- Export/import inbox, sent mail, contacts and server pins as one shareable backup file — never the seed.
Layout
lib/smol/ the protocol: crypto, Noise handshake, framing, client flows
lib/presentation/ screens, widgets and theme (Riverpod + auto_route)
lib/data/ Riverpod providers
test/ protocol vectors, store tests, a live e2e round-trip
Run and verify
devbox run analyze
devbox run test
flutter run
test/e2e_test.dart runs a live round-trip against https://smol.place/smolmaild.py on 127.0.0.1:1961 and skips itself when nothing's listening there.
Notes and limits
- No server push in v1 — fetch is manual.
- The seed lives in app storage; a compromised device is a compromised identity.
- Rotation isn't revocation — a stolen key can still rotate onward. Settings surfaces rotations for out-of-band verification rather than applying them silently.
