Decode and embed Stegstr payloads in PNG images. Use when the user needs to extract hidden Nostr data from a Stegstr image, encode a payload into a cover PNG, or work with steganographic social networking (Nostr-in-images). Supports CLI (stegstr-cli decode, detect, embed, post) for scripts and AI agents.

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Stegstr hides Nostr messages and arbitrary payloads inside PNG images using steganography. Users embed their feed (posts, DMs, JSON) into images and share them; recipients use Detect to load the hidden content. No registration, works offline.
User wants to decode (extract) hidden data from a PNG that contains Stegstr data. User wants to embed a payload into a cover PNG (e.g. Nostr bundle, JSON, text). User mentions steganography, Nostr-in-images, Stegstr, hiding data in images, or secret messages in photos. User needs programmatic access for automation, scripts, or AI agents.
Build the CLI from the Stegstr repo: git clone https://github.com/brunkstr/Stegstr.git cd Stegstr/src-tauri cargo build --release --bin stegstr-cli Binary: target/release/stegstr-cli (or stegstr-cli.exe on Windows).
stegstr-cli decode image.png Writes raw payload to stdout. Valid UTF-8 JSON is printed as text; otherwise base64:<data>. Exit 0 on success.
stegstr-cli detect image.png Decodes and decrypts; prints Nostr bundle JSON { "version": 1, "events": [...] }.
stegstr-cli embed cover.png -o out.png --payload "text or JSON" stegstr-cli embed cover.png -o out.png --payload @bundle.json stegstr-cli embed cover.png -o out.png --payload @bundle.json --encrypt Use --payload @file to load from file. Use --encrypt so any Stegstr user can detect. Use --payload-base64 <base64> for binary payloads.
stegstr-cli post "Your message here" --output bundle.json stegstr-cli post "Message" --privkey-hex <64-char-hex> --output bundle.json Creates a Nostr bundle; use stegstr-cli embed to hide it in an image.
# Create a post bundle stegstr-cli post "Hello from OpenClaw" --output bundle.json # Embed into a cover image (encrypted for any Stegstr user) stegstr-cli embed cover.png -o stego.png --payload @bundle.json --encrypt # Recipient detects and extracts stegstr-cli detect stego.png
PNG only (lossless). JPEG or other lossy formats will corrupt the hidden data.
Magic: STEGSTR (7 bytes ASCII) Length: 4 bytes, big-endian Payload: UTF-8 JSON or raw bytes (desktop app encrypts; CLI can embed raw or --encrypt) Decrypted bundle: { "version": 1, "events": [ ... Nostr events ... ] }. Schema: bundle.schema.json.
