Desktop and CLI archive manager with native .sqz self-recovery containers.
Last reviewed: 2026-07-01
Squallz is a Rust-first archive tool with two product surfaces: a Tauri/Svelte desktop app and a scriptable sqz command line interface. Archive behavior lives in shared Rust core, format, and recovery crates, so GUI and CLI workflows stay aligned.
The project is in a polish and hardening phase. The goal is dependable archive workflows, clear local privacy boundaries, and a reliable .sqz container, not broad feature sprawl.

| Area | What it means |
|---|---|
| Desktop app | Tauri UI for opening, previewing, testing, extracting, compressing, converting, checksums, repair, themes, history, and desktop handoff paths. |
| CLI |
sqz supports scriptable archive creation, extraction, listing, testing, conversion, nested archives, checksums, duplicate scans, batch jobs, diagnostics, and JSON output. |
Native .sqz
|
Recovery-focused container with footer indexes, checksums, embedded Reed-Solomon recovery, split volumes, and standard archive export. |
| Safety | Shared extraction guardrails for path traversal, Zip Slip, symlink breakout, output limits, entry limits, and compression-ratio limits. |
| Privacy | No ads, no telemetry, no file uploads. Saved passwords use the OS credential store only when the user opts in. |
Squallz 是 Rust 优先的压缩归档工具，提供两个入口：Tauri/Svelte 桌面应用和可脚本化的 sqz CLI。归档业务逻辑集中在共享 Rust core、formats 和 recovery crate 中，避免 GUI 和 CLI 各自实现一套行为。
项目当前处于打磨和收尾阶段。重点是可靠的归档流程、本地隐私边界和可审计的 .sqz 自恢复容器，而不是继续扩张功能面。
| 模块 | 含义 |
|---|---|
| 桌面应用 | 用 Tauri UI 完成打开、预览、测试、解压、压缩、转换、checksum、修复、主题、历史记录和桌面入口交接。 |
| CLI |
sqz 支持创建、解压、列出、测试、转换、嵌套归档、checksum、重复文件扫描、批处理、诊断和 JSON 输出。 |
原生 .sqz
|
面向恢复的容器，包含 footer index、校验和、内嵌 Reed-Solomon 恢复、分卷和标准归档导出。 |
| 安全边界 | 共享处理路径穿越、Zip Slip、符号链接越界、输出大小、条目数量和压缩比限制。 |
| 隐私 | 无广告、无遥测、不上传文件；只有用户主动选择记住密码时才写入系统密码库。 |
