ASCII Smuggler\n\nPayload encoding toolkit for Unicode smuggling, steganography, and text obfuscation.\n\n**[Live Demo →](https://ascii-smuggler.coey.dev/)**\n\n![ASCII Smuggler](https://img.shields.io/badge/astro-5-purple) ![Tailwind](https://img.shields.io/badge/tailwind-4-blue) ![Cloudflare Pages](https://img.shields.io/badge/deploy-cloudflare_pages-orange)\n\n## What it does\n\nEncode and decode text using 8 different smuggling techniques:\n\n| Technique | Category | Risk | Description |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| Unicode Confusables | Visual | High | Cyrillic/Greek lookalike substitution |\n| Zero-Width Encoding | Steganographic | Critical | Invisible zero-width character encoding |\n| Hex Escape Encoding | Obfuscation | Medium | `\\xNN` hex escape sequences |\n| Chunked Base64 | Obfuscation | Medium | Indexed base64 segments |\n| RTL Override | Directional | High | Right-to-left text direction spoofing |\n| HTML Comment Injection | Structural | Medium | Payload hidden in HTML comments |\n| Case-Bit Steganography | Steganographic | Low | Binary data in letter casing |\n| Multi-Script Homoglyphs | Visual | High | Cross-script character substitution |\n\n## Features\n\n- **Pipeline mode** — chain multiple techniques together\n- **Diff view** — see exactly which codepoints changed\n- **Hex dump** — raw byte inspection\n- **Codepoint inspector** — visual Unicode analysis\n- **Operation log** — track every encoding step\n- **Copy / Reverse** — quick workflow actions\n- **Responsive** — works on mobile\n\n## Stack\n\n- [Astro](https://astro.build) — static site framework\n- [React](https://react.dev) — interactive island\n- [Tailwind CSS v4](https://tailwindcss.com) — styling\n- [Cloudflare Pages](https://pages.cloudflare.com) — hosting\n\n## Development\n\n```bash\nnpm install\nnpm run dev\n```\n\nOpen [http://localhost:4321](http://localhost:4321).\n\n## Build\n\n```bash\nnpm run build\n```\n\nOutput goes to `dist/`.\n\n## Deploy to Cloudflare Pages\n\n### Option 1: Git integration\n\n1. Push to GitHub\n2. Go to [Cloudflare Pages](https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/pages/new/provider/github)\n3. Select the repo\n4. Settings:\n   - **Build command**: `npm run build`\n   - **Build output**: `dist`\n   - **Node version**: 18+\n\n### Option 2: Direct upload\n\n```bash\nnpm run build\nnpx wrangler pages deploy dist --project-name=ascii-smuggler\n```\n\n## Educational Purpose\n\nThis tool is built for **security research and education**. Understanding these encoding techniques helps defenders build better detection systems. Use responsibly.\n\n## License\n\nMIT\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Facoyfellow%2Fascii-smuggler","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Facoyfellow%2Fascii-smuggler","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Facoyfellow%2Fascii-smuggler/lists"}
