UFFS v0.6.1

🚀 What's New

See the full changelog
and CHANGELOG.md in the repository for details.

📦 Downloads

UFFS is a Windows-native NTFS search engine — live indexing of
the Master File Table requires Windows. The engine core is
cross-platform, so macOS and Linux builds are shipped for
offline MFT analysis from captured .mft / .bin snapshots.

Each platform ships as a one-download ZIP bundle in three
tiers — pick the one that matches how much you need:

Tier Zip suffix Contents
min -min.zip uffs + uffsd + uffs-tui demo. Lean engine for CI/scripting.
normal (no suffix) min + uffsmcp + uffs-mft + docs + brand + packaging helper. Recommended.
full -full.zip normal + the uffs-diag diagnostic tools.

🖥️ Every tier bundles the free uffs-tui demo — the
zero-setup front door. After unzipping, just run uffs-tui
to browse your own drives in a UI (the daemon auto-starts).
The demo has capped result counts and disabled exports; see
DEMO-LICENSE.txt in the zip. Full TUI/GUI are commercial.

Individual binaries are also attached for automation that
wgets a single file.

🟦 Windows x86_64 — primary live-indexing target

  • uffs-windows-x64.zip — recommended (normal tier): CLI +
    daemon + MCP + MFT tooling + uffs-tui demo + icon + docs.
    The .exes ship with the UFFS icon and asInvoker manifest
    embedded. Also: uffs-windows-x64-min.zip,
    uffs-windows-x64-full.zip.
  • Raw binaries: uffs-windows-x64.exe, uffsd-windows-x64.exe,
    uffsmcp-windows-x64.exe, uffs-mft-windows-x64.exe.

🍏 macOS Apple Silicon — offline MFT analysis

  • uffs-macos-arm64.zip — recommended (normal tier): raw
    binaries + uffs-tui demo + a ready-to-run UFFS.app bundle
    • icns + docs + packaging/macos/bundle.sh for rebuilding.
      Also: uffs-macos-arm64-min.zip, uffs-macos-arm64-full.zip.
  • Raw binaries: uffs-macos-arm64, uffsd-macos-arm64,
    uffsmcp-macos-arm64, uffs-mft-macos-arm64.
  • Intel Macs: run the arm64 build under Rosetta 2.

🐧 Linux x86_64 — offline MFT analysis

  • uffs-linux-x64.zip — recommended (normal tier): binaries
    • uffs-tui demo + full hicolor icon tree +
      packaging/linux/install.sh (drops the .desktop entry and
      icons under /usr/local with one sudo invocation) + docs.
      Also: uffs-linux-x64-min.zip, uffs-linux-x64-full.zip.
  • Raw binaries: uffs-linux-x64, uffsd-linux-x64,
    uffsmcp-linux-x64, uffs-mft-linux-x64.
  • Use with --mft-file to analyse captured MFT snapshots on servers, forensics VMs, or in Docker.

🔐 Verification

All binaries are accompanied by SHA256 checksums in CHECKSUMS.txt.
Verify with:

sha256sum -c CHECKSUMS.txt

Additionally, every release asset carries a SLSA build-
provenance attestation signed with the workflow's Sigstore
OIDC identity. Verify with GitHub CLI:

gh attestation verify <file> --owner skyllc-ai

A successful verification proves the bytes were produced by
this exact workflow run on this exact commit.

📋 SBOM (Software Bill of Materials)

Each workspace crate ships a CycloneDX 1.5 SBOM alongside the
binaries: sbom-<crate>.cdx.json. The SBOMs are covered by
the same SLSA attestation as the binaries, so you can verify
the inventory with the same command above. Inspect with any
CycloneDX-aware tool, e.g.:

jq '.components[] | {name, version, purl}' sbom-uffs-cli.cdx.json

📋 Installation

Recommended: ZIP bundle

  1. Download uffs-<platform>.zip for your platform.
  2. Unzip anywhere.
  3. Windows: the .exes are ready to run; place them on PATH. Icon + asInvoker manifest are already baked into the PE.
  4. macOS: double-click UFFS.app, or move the raw uffs binary into /usr/local/bin/. First launch: Gatekeeper warns because the bundle is unsigned — right-click → Open to confirm, or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine UFFS.app.
  5. Linux: run sudo packaging/linux/install.sh from the unzipped directory — installs the binary, the .desktop entry, and the full hicolor icon set. Override prefix with sudo PREFIX=/opt/uffs packaging/linux/install.sh.

Raw-binary path (automation)

  • Download the individual binary, e.g. uffs-linux-x64.
  • macOS / Linux: chmod +x uffs-* then optionally mv uffs-* /usr/local/bin/uffs.
  • Windows: the .exe is ready to run; place it on PATH.

🛠️ Build Information
