I built a web‑based PGP key generator that runs entirely client‑side in your browser – no server calls, no telemetry, and no logging.

The generator uses OpenPGP.js and creates OpenPGP key pairs (RSA 4096/8192 as well as ECC/Curve25519/brainpoolP384r1) directly in the browser. All cryptographic operations (key generation, fingerprint calculation, export) happen locally – there are no requests to third‑party servers and no external script dependencies.

What the tool does:

• Generates a PGP key pair based on name/pseudonym, email address and a password (passphrase for the private key).
• Displays the public key, private key, fingerprint and long key ID.
• Exports the public/private key or the complete key pair as a ZIP file (filenames include the email address and key ID).
• Provides a “Secure wipe” button that overwrites and clears input fields and generated keys in the DOM with random data before you leave the page.

How it’s built – short technical overview:

• Pure HTML/CSS/JS, no external fonts/CDNs, only locally bundled JS libraries (OpenPGP.js and JSZip).
• Strict security headers (Content‑Security‑Policy, X‑Frame‑Options, Referrer‑Policy, etc.) to harden the page against common browser‑based attack vectors.
• All input is only used in the browser’s memory. There is no persistence, no tracking and no transmission of passwords or keys to any server.

Important notes:

• The private key is still sensitive, of course – you should always store it offline/encrypted and never share it with third parties.
• The tool is intentionally minimalistic: no database, no web of trust, just key generation & export.

If you want to try it out or review it (code, security concept, UX, threat model, etc.), here’s the article with all details and the tool itself:

I use Le Chat regularly and have noticed that the responses are often highly structured: lots of bold text, bullet points, and clear sections. This has made me curious—why is that the case? I’d prefer more flowing text instead of so many lists and highlights.

Other well-known AI competitors offer settings to select how the output should be formatted—short, long, more lists, fewer lists, flowing text, abbreviated, etc.

Mistral AI should implement such an option in Le Chat, absolutely.
