DOCUMENTATION INDEX.
GETTING STARTED
An overview of the BlackMafia privacy platform, tool access patterns, and direct browser workflows.
- What BlackMafia is & core mission
- Overview of available security layers
- How to access and launch tools
STEGAX
In-depth documentation for StegaX: payload concealment in PNG/JPEG images and extraction mechanics.
- Least Significant Bit carrier encoding
- Hiding files and plain text messages
- Password-protected extraction workflows
- Supported carrier image dimensions
SHADOWCHAT
Guide to establishing ephemeral WebSocket communication rooms, room code lifecycle, and data purging.
- Creating and joining temporary rooms
- Server-authoritative room codes
- Real-time bidirectional message events
- Manual history purging & auto-expiry
SECURITY
Technical overview of BlackMafia security architecture, operational boundaries, and threat mitigation.
- Separated service boundaries & topology
- Ephemeral room data lifecycles
- Join and message throttle rate limits
- Signed HTTP-only admin session state
PLATFORM
Architectural breakdown of the full-stack system implementation and inter-service communications.
- Next.js App Router presentation tier
- StegaX Python/Flask processing backend
- ShadowChat Node.js + Socket.IO server
- PostgreSQL bounded state storage
LIMITATIONS
Honest transparency regarding platform boundaries, cryptographic scope, and operating assumptions.
- No system provides absolute security
- ShadowChat is not end-to-end encrypted
- Server processes transient operational data
- Security relies on proper operational use
START HERE.
Choose a Tool
Identify whether your requirement is hiding visual data or conducting an ephemeral real-time conversation.
Open the Tool
Launch StegaX or ShadowChat directly through the browser without mandatory account registration.
Follow the Workflow
Embed/extract your payload or exchange messages inside your temporary code-protected room.
Review Considerations
Understand retention limits, transport boundaries, and operational guidelines for responsible usage.
