ColdShelf answers a very ordinary, very annoying question: which unplugged drive contains that file? It catalogs drive metadata once, then lets you search and browse the catalog while every drive is back on the shelf.

Highlights

  • Scan folders and removable drives read-only; ColdShelf never moves, renames, or deletes source files.
  • Search file names and paths offline through an embedded SQLite/FTS5 catalog.
  • Browse drive contents, compare snapshots, and see additions, removals, and changes.
  • Choose metadata-only, quick fingerprints, or complete SHA-256 hashes. Exact duplicate results require complete hashes.
  • Give physical drives stable IDs, shelf/location notes, tags, and printable QR labels.
  • Import Everything .efu catalogs and export JSON or CSV.
  • Run as one cross-platform binary with an embedded local web interface, bound to loopback by default.

Quick start

coldshelf demo --serve

Or catalog a real drive:

coldshelf scan "E:\" --name "Blue Archive" --hash quick
coldshelf serve --open

Downloads

Choose the archive matching Windows, macOS, or Linux and either AMD64 (most Intel/AMD computers) or ARM64. Every archive includes the executable, installation guide, security notes, license, and third-party notices. Verify downloads with SHA256SUMS; GitHub build attestations are also published.

This is the first public release. Feedback from people managing offline drives, photo/video archives, field backups, and cold storage is especially useful.
