Conversation
QtPass advertised OTP support, but it was only a shell-out to the third-party pass-otp extension: RealPass::OtpGenerate ran `pass otp`, ImitatePass::OtpGenerate was a stub, ConfigDialog disabled the feature when the extension was missing and hid the checkbox entirely on Windows, and updateOtpButtonVisibility() hid the toolbar action on Windows and macOS. OTP therefore never worked on Windows, never worked in gpg2/git-direct mode, and needed a Unix package most users lack. Generate one-time passwords in-process instead, using only QtCore (QMessageAuthenticationCode + QCryptographicHash), so no dependency is added. The configuration is stored as an otpauth:// URI in the OTP template field, and bare otpauth:// lines written by pass-otp are still read for compatibility. New modules, ported and trimmed from KeePassXC: - Base32 (src/base32.*): RFC 4648 codec. Failure is an empty QByteArray rather than KeePassXC's QVariant-nullness idiom. Two fixes over the original: encode() no longer sign-extends bytes >= 0x80 (which corrupted neighbouring bytes of the 40-bit quantum), and decode() rejects impossible pad counts instead of returning wrong-length data. - Totp (src/totp.*): RFC 6238, SHA-1/256/512 plus the Steam encoder. parse() returns std::optional<Settings> and validates everything, so Settings is valid by construction and generate() cannot fail — this replaces KeePassXC's "return the localized error string in place of the code, plus a bool* out-param" convention. Also fixes its modulus overflow at ten digits (pow() into a quint32), applies the digits and period clamps on every path, and rejects otpauth://hotp/, which KeePassXC would answer with a plausible-looking wrong code. - OtpCodeWidget (src/otpcodewidget.*): the live row. Its refresh timer is a child of the widget it updates, so PasswordDisplayPanel::clear() deleting the row also stops the timer; a panel-owned timer could fire into a destroyed label. Refreshes at 1 Hz from the wall clock, so a suspend across a period boundary self-corrects. Also fixes a secret-disclosure bug. FileContent::parse promoted any "name: value" line to a NamedValue and PasswordDisplayPanel::addField rendered every NamedValue verbatim into a QTextBrowser and onto a copy button, while isLineHidden() only suppressed lines *starting* with otpauth://. An entry holding "OTP: otpauth://...?secret=..." therefore displayed its shared secret in cleartext. isLineHidden() now also covers OTP/TOTP field names and otpauth:// values, and displayFields() skips OTP-named fields unconditionally — including when the feature is off. The value deliberately stays in namedValues and remainingData, because PasswordDialog reads the field from there and getPassword() drops empty fields, so stripping it would silently delete the secret on the next save. Other changes: - MainWindow::onOtp decrypts once and derives the code via otpFromFileToClipboard, reusing the established one-shot-Show idiom (with the Qt 5/6 SingleShotConnection split). passOtpHandler and the finishedOtpGenerate connect are gone; updateOtpButtonVisibility no longer gates on platform. - Pass::OtpGenerate and friends are kept unchanged, so the public backend API and tst_integration's coverage of it still work. - PasswordDialog accepts a pasted URI or bare base32 secret in the OTP field, canonicalises it on save, and flags an unusable value with a theme-aware warning action. An invalid value is left verbatim rather than discarded. - useOtp now defaults to true (it no longer implies an external dependency) and the default template gains OTP. Tests: new tests/auto/base32 (60 cases) and tests/auto/totp (57 cases), covering all 18 RFC 6238 appendix-B vectors across SHA-1/256/512, both Steam vectors, the ten-digit overflow regression and the sign-extension regression. tst_filecontent and tst_passworddisplaypanel gain coverage for the lookup precedence, the leak fix, and the timer lifetime.

On Windows (cmd.exe), the '*' wildcard in 'localization/*.ts' is passed literally to lupdate, which then fails because '*' is an invalid filename character. Use qmake's built-in 1485files() function to expand the glob before passing it to the system() call — this works cross-platform. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Mechanical `lupdate` output from running qmake6 after the native TOTP work changed source strings. No translations were altered by hand. Adds four new source strings: - Enable one-time password (OTP) support - Invalid OTP secret - Seconds until the OTP code changes - otpauth:// URI or base32 secret Marks three as vanished, since OTP no longer depends on the pass-otp extension: "Use pass-otp extension", "Use pass otp extension" and "Pass OTP extension needs to be installed". The remaining churn is line-number references shifting in the files the TOTP commit edited. This refresh was missing from that commit because the qmake lupdate step silently failed on Windows until the wildcard fix in f0f77fc. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Building on Windows with the documented steps
qmake -spec win32-msvc
nmake
fails part way through with an error inside Qt's own headers:
...\include\qt\QtCore/qlist.h(915):
error C2653: 'stdext': is not a class or namespace name
error C3861: 'make_checked_array_iterator': identifier not found
Two independent environment problems produce it, and neither is visible from
the instructions:
1. `qmake` resolves to a Python distribution's Qt rather than the installed
MSVC Qt. Anaconda puts its bin directory early on PATH and ships Qt 5.15
for PyQt, so qmake, uic, rcc and lrelease all come from conda. Qt 5.15
defines QT_MAKE_CHECKED_ARRAY_ITERATOR as
stdext::make_checked_array_iterator, which Microsoft has removed from its
STL, so qlist.h cannot compile with a current MSVC at all. That Qt is also
a conda package: headers under include\qt, libraries named
Qt5Core_conda.lib.
2. The MSVC tools on PATH are 32-bit (bin\HostX86\x86) while an msvc*_64 Qt is
x64. Even with (1) fixed this fails at link time with LNK1112.
Windows.md step 3 does prescribe the right setup, but nothing reports when it
was skipped, and the resulting error points at Qt rather than at the shell.
scripts/build-windows.cmd runs the documented build from a bare cmd.exe and
checks each assumption first, failing with a specific message:
- locates Visual Studio with vswhere and loads vcvars64
- verifies cl actually targets x64
- locates Qt (QT_DIR, else the newest msvc*_64 install found under C:\Qt,
R:\Qt, D:\Qt or %USERPROFILE%\Qt), preferring Qt 6
- rejects a conda or MinGW qmake, and Qt 5 unless ALLOW_QT5=1, naming the
stdext error so it is recognisable
- clears QMAKESPEC/QTDIR and removes a stale .qmake.stash
Windows.md gains a Qt 6 requirement callout, a quick start, a verify-your-shell
snippet (`where qmake`, `qmake -query QT_VERSION`, `cl`), notes on running
tests, and troubleshooting rows for the stdext and LNK1112 symptoms. It no
longer implies Qt must live in C:\Qt.
Two Windows test-running quirks are documented rather than worked around:
nmake check stops at the first failing test binary and /K does not help,
because qmake's recursive rules invoke nmake without it; and QtTest output is
lost when redirected, so -o results.txt,txt is needed to read it.
.gitattributes pins *.cmd to CRLF on checkout. cmd.exe label lookup is
unreliable in LF-only batch files - an LF checkout of the new script fails with
"The system cannot find the batch label specified". Scoped to *.cmd because the
existing *.bat files are stored with CRLF and declaring them would rewrite
them.
No source, .pro or .pri files are touched.

Clicking the OTP toolbar action reported "OTP code copied to clipboard" but left the clipboard empty. The status message was accurate as far as it went: otpFromFileToClipboard did run and did call copyTextToClipboard. The copy was then lost. onOtp() re-decrypted the entry with Pass::Show() and derived the code in a one-shot finishedShow slot. But MainWindow::passShowHandler is connected to finishedShow first (qtpass.cpp connectPassSignalHandlers, from the MainWindow constructor), so with clipBoardType == CLIPBOARD_ALWAYS both slots ran in the same event-loop turn and wrote the clipboard twice: 1. passShowHandler -> setClippedText -> copyTextToClipboard(password) 2. otpFromFileToClipboard -> copyTextToClipboard(code) On Windows each is an OleSetClipboard, which empties the clipboard before publishing the new data. Back to back, that can leave it empty rather than holding either value. The panel's copy button was never affected because it performs a single write. Step 1 was also wrong on its own terms: a request for a one-time code must not put the account password on the clipboard, however briefly. The second decrypt is unnecessary. When the entry is displayed, OtpCodeWidget already holds the current code, so PasswordDisplayPanel::currentOtpCode() exposes it and onOtp() copies that directly — one clipboard write, no decrypt, no dependence on slot ordering. The one-shot Show survives only as a fallback for when no OTP row is rendered (hideContent, panel autoclear, or an entry without an OTP), and there a new m_otpRequestPending flag makes passShowHandler skip the password copy. Three further defects found while tracing this, all fixed: - updateOtpButtonVisibility() ignored the state its caller passed, so setUiElementsEnabled(false) re-enabled actionOtp and the user could stack Show calls during a decrypt. It now takes a uiEnabled argument; visibility still follows the setting alone so the button does not flicker. - A decrypt failure never fires finishedShow, and Qt::SingleShotConnection only self-disconnects when it does fire, so the armed connection survived and the next unrelated finishedShow was hijacked — a later tree click would copy an OTP and show "No OTP code found in this password entry". otpFromFileToClipboard now ignores a fire it did not ask for, and the UI watchdog clears the flag too. - An empty decrypt result was reported as "No OTP code found in this password entry", masking a decrypt failure as a data problem. It now says "Could not decrypt this password entry". The clipboard layer is deliberately untouched: autoclear is confirmed working, and the double-write hazard is removed at source rather than papered over in copyTextToClipboard. Verified by the reporter against a real store: TOTP codes, live countdown, clipboard autoclear and the toolbar action all behave correctly. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Two defects found by code review.
Qt 5.15 declares only QByteArray::operator[](int) and operator[](uint). The
codec indexed with qsizetype, which on LP64 is long long: the conversions to
int and to uint have equal rank, so neither overload wins and the call is
ambiguous. Qt 6 added a qsizetype overload, which is why this compiled locally
while the ubuntu-latest / qt 5.15 matrix leg could not build at all. Write
through a raw `char *` obtained once from data() instead, which is unambiguous
on both versions and skips the repeated detach check. Reads via at() were
always fine: Qt 5.15 has a single at(int) overload.
countPadding() also counted every '=' within the last six positions rather than
the trailing run, because it never stopped at the first non-'='. So
removePadding("AB=CDEF=") counted two pads, resized to six and destroyed the
'F', and decode("AA======AAAAAAAA") saw zero pads and returned ten zero bytes
instead of the empty result the header documents for malformed input. Stop at
the first non-'=', and reject a '=' that appears before the trailing run.
Both were latent — removePadding has no callers in src/ yet, and decode is only
reached through sanitizeInput, which strips '=' before padding — but both are
public API and decode's strictness is what makes isEmpty() a valid error test.

Code review found two paths that put a shared secret on screen and onto a copy button, both defeating the suppression this branch added. FileContent::parse() takes line 0 as the password before the loop that scans for bare otpauth:// lines. An entry written by `pass otp insert` has the URI as its only line, so it was never recognised as OTP configuration — no OTP row, and the toolbar reported "No OTP code found in this password entry" — while the URI itself was rendered as the Password row, loaded into a QPushButtonWithClipboard, and, under CLIPBOARD_ALWAYS, copied to the clipboard on every selection. Fix: recognise a URI in the password position as OTP configuration, and add getPasswordForDisplay(), which is empty in that case. getPassword() still returns the raw line so PasswordDialog round-trips the file unchanged — moving the line into remainingData would have inserted a leading blank line into the user's file. passShowHandler now uses the display variant, so neither the panel nor setClippedText() ever sees it, and displayFields() refuses to render an otpauth URI as a password as defence in depth. Second, the render layer suppressed fields by NAME only, while isLineHidden() also hides fields whose VALUE is an otpauth URI. So `2fa: otpauth://...` was promoted to a NamedValue with templateAllFields on and rendered in full with a copy button — and hidden when templateAllFields was off, i.e. a secret leaked or not depending on an unrelated setting. isOtpUriValue() is now public and used by the hide path, the render path and the getOtpUri() precedence, so such a field produces a working OTP row instead of leaking or vanishing. The tests that were supposed to catch this could not: renderedText() in tst_passworddisplaypanel read only QLabel::text() and toolTip(), never the QTextBrowser, QLineEdit or QPushButtonWithClipboard payload that addField() actually writes values into — so the "secret must never be shown" assertions would have passed with the suppression deleted outright. It now covers all four sinks. Both new panel cases were confirmed failing before the fix. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Four defects around the OTP field, found by code review. normalizeOtpField() ran on every OK, and Base32::sanitizeInput() maps 1 to L and 8 to B, so a static backup code stored as `OTP: 12345678` sanitized to "L234567B" — eight characters, decodable, so Totp::isValid() said yes and no warning was shown. Edit any field, click OK, and QtPass rewrote the line as `OTP: otpauth://totp/<entry>?secret=L234567B&digits=6&period=30` and re-encrypted it. The user never had to touch the OTP field: setPassword() parses with allFields=true, so the line is always a QLineEdit that otpLineEdit() finds. The original was unrecoverable except from git history, and the doc block claimed the opposite. Now a value is only rewritten when it is already an otpauth:// URI or when the user actually typed in the field this session, tracked from QLineEdit::textEdited (user input only, unlike textChanged). A bare secret left alone still works — Totp::parse() accepts one. otpLineEdit() searched m_templateLines first and returned the first name match. Since the default template is now "login\nurl\nOTP" it creates an empty OTP widget, and setPassword() fills template widgets by exact objectName, so an entry storing `TOTP:` left that widget empty and put the real secret in m_otherLines. Everything then operated on the wrong widget: no validation, no canonicalisation, typos saved silently. It now prefers a populated match. hookOtpField() set m_otpWarning to nullptr on the assumption that the old field was deleted with it. That holds for m_otherLines, which removeRow() deletes, but not for m_templateLines, which setPassword() only calls setText() on. So populating an invalid value installed one icon, hookOtpField() forgot it, and the next validate installed a second; correcting the value removed only the second, leaving the field permanently marked invalid. It now removes the action from its owner before dropping the pointer. Finally, QFileInfo::completeBaseName() truncates at the last dot, so an entry called github.com produced a label of "github" and mail.google.com became "mail.google" — persisted into the URI, and what any authenticator you later export to would display. Use fileName(); m_file already has .gpg stripped. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two defects in the OTP toolbar path, both introduced by the previous commit. m_otpRequestPending was cleared only on success and by the UI watchdog. A failed decrypt (cancelled pinentry, wrong key) never emits Pass::finishedShow; it goes to QtPass::processErrorExit, which calls setUiElementsEnabled(true) — and that stops the watchdog, the one other place clearing the flag. So a single cancelled pinentry wedged it true for the rest of the session, with two consequences: passShowHandler permanently skipped setClippedText(), silently disabling copy-password-on-select in CLIPBOARD_ALWAYS mode; and the still-armed one-shot passed the guard on the next ordinary tree click, copying an unrelated entry's OTP code or red-flashing "No OTP code found in this password entry" over a panel the user only wanted to look at. The guard's own comment claimed to make a stale arm inert, but the failure path produced the one state it could not handle. Requests now end explicitly via cancelOtpRequest(), connected to Pass::processErrorExit and also called from deselect(). The fast path read the panel's displayed code without checking the panel was showing the selected entry. on_treeView_clicked is wired to QTreeView::clicked, which is mouse-only, and nothing handles currentChanged — so moving the selection with the arrow keys, or right-clicking an entry (showContextMenu calls setCurrentIndex with no Show) and pressing Escape, leaves the panel rendering the previous account while currentIndex points elsewhere. Pressing OTP then copied the wrong account's code and reported success. The panel's current entry is now tracked in m_shownFile and the fast path requires it to match; otherwise the decrypt fallback runs. The fallback also records the requested file so a decrypt started by something else cannot be taken for its answer. The absent currentChanged handler is a wider pre-existing gap — keyboard navigation does not refresh the panel at all — and is left alone here; this makes the wrong-code symptom impossible rather than silent. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two defects in the otpauth URI handling, both reachable because
normalizeOtpField() re-serialises the field and PasswordDialog writes the result
back to the encrypted file.
queryItemValue("digits").toUInt() returns 0 with no error signal for anything
non-numeric, and qBound(1, 0, 10) turned that into digits=1, step=1. So a
hand-typed URI with `period=3O` (letter O), or a provisioning tool emitting
`digits=&period=`, parsed "successfully" into a one-character code rotating once
a second, with no warning because parse() succeeded — and normalize() then wrote
`digits=1&period=1` back, destroying the original parameters. Absent, empty,
non-numeric and zero values now fall back to the RFC 6238 defaults. The existing
clamp test enshrined the old digits=0 behaviour and has been updated.
toUri() rebuilt the URI from only the six parameters Settings models, so any
other one was silently dropped. A URI carrying `image=` (honoured by Aegis and
2FAS) lost it the first time the user edited an unrelated field and clicked OK —
a valid URI mutated and re-encrypted with information removed. Unrecognised
query items are now kept verbatim and re-emitted.
toUri() also emitted the secret with the padding sanitizeInput() had added, so
QtPass wrote `secret=...======`. The Key-Uri-Format spec says the padding is
omitted, and third-party importers and QR readers commonly reject or truncate
it. Emit it through Base32::removePadding() — which had no callers in src/ at
all, this being its intended site — and rely on sanitizeInput() re-padding on
read, so the round trip is unchanged.

Flipping AppSettings::useOtp to true reached nobody who had ever run QtPass. init()'s fresh-install branch calls QtPassSettings::save(), and SettingsSerializer::save() writes every key unconditionally, so useOtp=false is already sitting in QSettings and `qs.value(useOtp, true)` never applies. There was no migration. The consequences compounded on upgrade. With useOtp false, passShowHandler passes an empty otpConfig, so displayFields() suppresses the OTP field and puts nothing in its place; isLineHidden() strips it from the text browser too, since hiding a shared secret is not conditional on the feature being on; and updateOtpButtonVisibility() had started hiding the toolbar action outright rather than merely disabling it. Net effect: an existing entry holding `OTP: otpauth://...` showed no trace of its OTP data anywhere in the main window, where previously it was at least visible as ordinary text. The setting also changed meaning — it used to gate the Unix-only pass-otp extension, now it gates built-in TOTP — so a stored false is stale state rather than a preference. Enable it once for existing profiles, recorded under its own otpMigratedToNative key so someone who deliberately turns it off is not overridden on the next launch. Also restore the toolbar action to visible-but-disabled when OTP is off, so the feature stays discoverable. Secret suppression itself remains unconditional.

conda/mingw paths, and Qt version.
In `@src/appsettings.h`:
- Line 74: Replace the trailing documentation on the public useOtp member with a
preceding Doxygen block using the required /** `@brief` ... */ form, while
preserving its existing description and default value.
In `@src/mainwindow.cpp`:
- Around line 1244-1266: Update the OTP fallback flow, specifically
passShowHandler’s panel-rendering path, to assign m_shownFile to the file being
displayed whenever Show(file) repaints the panel. Ensure this marker stays
synchronized with the rendered entry so onOtp()’s currentOtpCode fast path
cannot reuse another account’s code and repeated requests avoid unnecessary
decryption.
In `@src/passworddialog.h`:
- Around line 154-155: Use QPointer for the m_otpWarning member and include
QPointer in src/passworddialog.h (lines 154-155) so it nulls when the QAction’s

instead of comparing against nullptr.
In `@src/qtpass.cpp`:
- Around line 87-89: Update the fresh-install initialization alongside

for valid URIs.
- Around line 154-165: Update the queryItems call in the extraParams parsing

m_otpWarning held a raw QAction* returned by QLineEdit::addAction(), which parents the action to the line edit. setPassword() deletes every m_otherLines widget via formLayout->removeRow() (passworddialog.cpp:168) — taking their child actions with them — and only then calls hookOtpField() (:187), which dereferenced m_otpWarning->parent() to remove the action from its owner. When the warning belonged to one of those deleted widgets, that read was a use-after-free. Reachable in normal use: PasswordDialog stays connected to Pass::finishedShow, so setPassword() runs again on every emission, and an entry whose OTP value fails validation has the action installed. Make the member a QPointer<QAction>, which nulls itself when the parent destroys the action, and test it with isNull(). The surviving-widget path is unchanged: the action is still removed from its owner and deleted. Reported by CodeRabbit on the pull request. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two problems in Totp::parse, both found by CodeRabbit. A string that starts with otpauth: but that QUrl cannot parse fell through to the bare-secret branch, which hands the whole string to Base32::sanitizeInput(). That strips the punctuation and keeps the letters, so `otpauth://[::bad/totp?secret=JBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP` became the 36-character `otpauthbadtotpsecretJBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP`, padded to 40 — valid base32 — and QtPass generated a confidently wrong code from it. Such input is now rejected, like the existing HOTP case: an error beats a plausible-looking wrong code. Note the malformed cases that were already handled: `otpauth:`, `otpauth:totp/x?...` and `OTPAUTH:garbage` parse as valid URIs with an empty host, so the host != "totp" check caught them. Only a QUrl-invalid string reached the fallback. Separately, queryItems() defaults to QUrl::PrettyDecoded, which leaves percent escapes in place, while toUri() re-encodes with QUrl::toPercentEncoding. An `image=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fl.png` parameter therefore came back as the still-escaped literal and was escaped a second time on write. Request QUrl::FullyDecoded so the pair is symmetric. The existing test only asserted that "image=" was present, which passed while the value was mangled; it now checks the value itself, plus a parameter containing a literal percent sign, which is the case that double-encodes.

displayFields() set position = 1 unconditionally, on the assumption that the password always occupies row 0. An entry written by `pass otp insert` has no password row — that is the layout this branch added support for — so row 0 was left empty and the OTP row rendered under a blank gap. Number the rows as they are added instead. m_shownFile, which stops onOtp()'s fast path copying a code the panel is not actually showing, was assigned only in on_treeView_clicked(). Show() is also issued by the OTP fallback and by copyPasswordFromTreeview(), and both repaint the panel through passShowHandler, so the marker went stale. The guard failed safe — a mismatch only causes an extra decrypt, it never copies the wrong code — but the invariant was wrong and a second OTP request decrypted again needlessly. Assign it at those sites too. Setting it before the decrypt completes is safe because executeWrapperStarted() clears the panel on every command, so a failed decrypt leaves currentOtpCode() empty and the fast path inert. Reported by CodeRabbit on the pull request. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
The one-time useOtp migration is guarded by an otpMigratedToNative key, so that a user who deliberately turns OTP off is not overridden on the next launch. The fresh-install branch of init() never set that key, so a new profile got the guarantee backwards: turn OTP off during the first session, restart, and the migration branch — now reached because version is no longer empty — switched it back on. Set the marker alongside the existing save() in that branch. A fresh profile already carries the new default, so there is nothing for the migration to do. Reported by CodeRabbit on the pull request.

The script rejected a non-MSVC Qt only by looking for "mingw" in the resolved qmake path, so a MinGW kit installed as, say, C:\Qt\6.8.0\gcc_64 passed every check and failed later inside nmake. Ask the kit what it targets with qmake -query QMAKE_XSPEC and require win32-msvc, naming the spec found. To be clear about what this does not do: it would not have caught the Anaconda Qt 5.15 that motivated the script, which also reports win32-msvc. The existing conda-path and Qt-version guards remain the ones that catch that case; this is an additional check for kits the path heuristic misses. Reported by CodeRabbit on the pull request.

"No OTP code found in this password entry" was translated with the split form "wachtwoord bestand". Dutch writes compounds as one word, and this file already uses "wachtwoordbestand" in four other messages, so the split form was the anomaly. Corrected in both the finished and the unfinished copy of the string. Left alone: a type="vanished" obsolete string and an unrelated message in nl_BE that carry the same split form. Both predate this branch. Reported by a native-speaker review on the pull request. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Two unrelated CI failures, both infrastructure, both hitting every PR that builds code or runs the linters (e.g. #1625): - Qt 6.11 builds (ubuntu + macOS) fail in "Install Qt": the bare "6.11" version spec resolves to the latest patch 6.11.2, whose archives download.qt.io currently fails to serve ("Failed to download checksum ... from mirrors"). Pin the 6.11 matrix entries to the known-good 6.11.1 while keeping the "6.11" check names intact via a matrix expression. Revert once 6.11.2 mirrors propagate. - Lint Code Base fails despite "Failed checks: 0": super-linter (v8.7.0) POSTs per-linter commit statuses, but the job runs with a read-only token (no statuses: write), so each POST returns HTTP 403 and fails the job. Set MULTI_STATUS=false to disable the status writes; the job's own check result already reports pass/fail.

The super-linter run surfaced four issues once the status-403 was fixed; all are false positives on intentional test data or config, addressed at the repo-config level: - editorconfig: scripts/build-windows.cmd is CRLF by design (.gitattributes), but .editorconfig lacked a [*.cmd] rule, so it was checked as LF. Add the rule, mirroring the existing [*.bat]/[*.iss] blocks. - gitleaks: the base32/TOTP unit tests embed fabricated otpauth:// secrets (RFC 6238/4648 vectors) that trip generic-api-key. Add .github/linters/.gitleaks.toml extending the default ruleset and allowlisting tests/. - codespell: "fo" (RFC 4648 base32 vector f/fo/foo) and "unparseable" (a valid variant used in a negative-test row label) added to ignore-words-list. - markdownlint MD013: wrap the 495-char TOTP changelog bullet under 400.

Documentation: - CHANGELOG: add an Upgrade Notes section explaining that OTP is now on by default and how to turn it off (Settings tab), and that the upgrade touches only the setting — no stored passwords are read or rewritten. - FAQ: how to set up built-in TOTP (otpauth:// in the OTP field, no pass-otp needed) and how to disable the auto-displayed code. Code tidy (from review): - base32.cpp: reuse the already-computed nPads for firstPad instead of a second countPadding() scan of the same buffer. - passworddisplaypanel.h: fix a stale doc reference (passOtpHandler was renamed otpFromFileToClipboard). No behavior change. Migration policy is unchanged (enable-everywhere, sticky opt-out); test coverage of the TOTP/base32/FileContent paths is already comprehensive (RFC vectors, ASAN fuzz, arbitrary-named otpauth suppression), so no redundant tests added.

The initial allowlist exempted all of tests/.* from secret scanning, which would also hide a real leaked credential in any unrelated test. gitleaks only flags fabricated otpauth:// secrets in two files (tst_totp.cpp, tst_filecontent.cpp); scope the allowlist to exactly those so every other path — tests and production code — keeps full detection.

Summary
Implements native RFC 6238 TOTP in QtPass, replacing the shell-out to the third-party
pass-otpextension. One-time passwords are now generated in-process using only QtCore, so OTP works on every platform and with both backends for the first time.Before this PR, OTP was only ever a wrapper around
pass otp:RealPass::OtpGenerateranpass otp <file>;ImitatePass::OtpGeneratewas a stub logging "No OTP generation code for fake pass yet".ConfigDialogdisabled the feature when the extension was missing and hid the checkbox entirely on Windows.MainWindow::updateOtpButtonVisibilityhid the toolbar action on Windows and macOS.Net effect: OTP never worked on Windows, never worked in gpg-direct (
ImitatePass) mode, and required a Unix package most users don't have.It also fixes a secret-disclosure bug that predates the feature work:
FileContent::isLineHiddenonly suppressed lines starting withotpauth://, so an entry storingOTP: otpauth://…?secret=…rendered its shared secret in cleartext, put it on a copy button, and (inCLIPBOARD_ALWAYSmode) copied it to the clipboard on every selection.Scope: 42 code/doc files, +3459/−100. Plus 64 mechanical

Now only URIs or user-edited fields are canonicalised.The tests meant to catch the leaks couldn't:
