Doomsday question about decryption in case i need to recover the plaintext

[0xGitGuy]

Which encryption algo is this running on?

I imagine it would be possible to take the .md encrypted file, decrypt it via a python script with the password so that I do not need to rely on Obsidian or Obsidian plugin

Hi @0xGitGuy

It might be possible to implement in python. The code to translate can be found here:

• https://github.com/meld-cp/obsidian-encrypt/blob/main/src%2Fservices%2FCryptoHelperFactory.ts#L11
• https://github.com/meld-cp/obsidian-encrypt/blob/main/src%2Fservices%2FCryptoHelper2304.ts

There is also an independent standalone script you can test:

• See How to decrypt in bulk？ #105

Cheers
