Linux Kodachi
Kodachi OS Has a New Home
Kodachi now has its own dedicated hub — documentation, downloads, and a full suite of live privacy tools you can run right now, no install required.
About Kodachi OS
Founded on 20 October 2013, Kodachi OS is a privacy-focused Linux distribution trusted by the global privacy community, now serving 7,000+ monthly downloads with peaks reaching 10,000. As a one-person passion project, Kodachi delivers robust privacy and security without requiring deep technical expertise—making digital protection accessible to everyone.
What You’ll Find on the New Site
Some of what Kodachi runs locally is now exposed as live web tools — use them today to verify your setup or test the engine behind Kodachi’s privacy stack. Here’s a taste of what’s waiting on the new site:
Anonymity Verifier
The flagship “See What the Web Sees” report — Tor status, proxy detection, WebRTC leaks, session and security signals, all in one place.
IP Information Extractor
Full IP intel — ASN, geolocation, reverse DNS, blacklist status, datacenter / Tor exit detection, multi-source cross-validated.
DNS Leak Checker
Live DNS leak test — detects rogue resolvers, transparent proxies, unencrypted lookups, and resolver fingerprints visible to sites.
Browser Fingerprint
See exactly what sites can read about your browser — canvas, fonts, WebGL, audio context, screen, plugins, and how identifiable you are.
System Freshness Checker
Verify your running Kodachi install is current, untampered, and matches the signed release — live proof you’re booting the real thing.
DNS Propagation
Query a domain across resolvers worldwide — spot DNS censorship, GeoDNS splits, and propagation gaps in real time.
Domain Security Analyzer
A domain’s full security posture — DNS records, MX/SPF/DMARC/DKIM mail config, TLS chain, header hygiene, and exposure footprint.
File Hash Verify
Verify any ISO or binary against Kodachi’s signed manifests — BLAKE3 primary, SHA-256 fallback. Confirm what you have is what we shipped.
System Status
Live operational status for Kodachi services — verifier APIs, IP/DNS endpoints, mirrors, update channels, uptime, and incident notes.
All of This Is Live Right Now
No install, no signup — every tool above runs in your browser today. Editions, full documentation, downloads, and support all live on the new site.
