Tails gives you a Tor browser. Whonix gives you VM isolation. Parrot gives you a toolbox.
Kodachi gives you a complete control plane, and a stack of features that simply don’t exist anywhere else.
Multi-Tor + HAProxy load balancing
Run N parallel Tor instances behind an HAProxy front end, configurable per-circuit, with independent exit selection. Faster real-world throughput than single-instance Tor, and circuit correlation costs an adversary more.

Dashboard NUKE: beyond LUKS
The LUKS nuke password destroys keys at boot. Kodachi adds a live nuke surface in the dashboard with armable kill-switch, countdown, memory wipe, and an optional fake update screen to stall whoever is watching the laptop you can’t close yet.
health-control
Three-tier panic, by design
Soft: kill network, clear clipboard, lock screen (reversible). Medium: kill processes, wipe memory, unmount devices. Hard: irreversible destruction path. Triggered from dashboard or hotkey. Backed by cold-boot defense and multi-pass shred.
Anti-forensics
Dashboard-first, not bolt-on
Most privacy distros launch separate GUIs per tool. Kodachi ships a native Tauri + Svelte 5 dashboard that drives VPN, Tor, DNS, identity, hardening, workflows, AI, recovery, and emergency from one process, sharing state and live scoring across all of them.
Dashboard tour
92+ pre-built workflows
One click runs a chained sequence: rotate identity, restart Tor, re-check IP, verify DNS, regenerate MAC. Or build your own with the visual workflow builder. Repeatable privacy playbooks instead of a wiki of bash commands.
Workflows & AI
Dynamic security scoring
Live score across hardening, privacy, network, and auth, with history tracking and threat-response actions. Know exactly how exposed you are right now, not by reading a 50-page audit checklist.
Scoring engine
Always-on threat watchdog
health-control runs a background watchdog that continuously monitors network, hardware, USB and integrity state, then fires automated responses (re-block leaks, kill suspect connections, raise the security posture) without you watching the dashboard. Self-healing privacy, not just alerts.

Plain-English command intelligence
KAICS + ai-gateway translate “am I leaking my IP?” into dns-leak test --check-ip. Offline-first, with cloud routed through VPN/Tor when you opt in. Policy-aware so it can’t hurt you.
ai-cmd guide
Dev-ready on first boot
Compilers, language runtimes, editors, and security toolchains ship inside the ISO. Boot, install, and start coding the same hour, with a privacy stack already wrapping every connection your build process makes.
Desktop edition
13 VPN providers, one tab
Browse VPN Gate, Riseup, NordVPN, IVPN, PIA, Surfshark, Mullvad, AirVPN, Windscribe, ProtonVPN, ExpressVPN, TorGuard, plus your own pasted configs (.ovpn, WireGuard, Shadowsocks, V2Ray, Hysteria2, or vmess:///vless:///ss:// URI schemes and Clash/sing-box subscriptions) from one dashboard tab. Sort, filter, ping-benchmark, save credentials, and connect — all without leaving the GUI.
