# Metadata cleaner Sạch removes hidden metadata — GPS coordinates, author names, camera model, timestamps, editing software — from photos, video, audio and documents. It edits the metadata bytes only: images and video are never re-encoded, and an MP4 comes out exactly the same size it went in. Everything runs locally. Nothing is uploaded anywhere. ## Finding the CLI The tool is `bin/sach.mjs` in the Sạch repository and needs Node 20 or newer. 1. If `sach` is on the PATH (the package was installed or linked), use `sach`. 2. Otherwise use `node <path-to-repo>/bin/sach.mjs`. 3. If you cannot locate the repository, ask the user where it is. Do not substitute a different tool and do not write your own — say what you need. Every example below writes `sach`; substitute whichever form works. ## The required workflow Follow all three steps, in order. Never skip step 2. ### Step 1 — Look, without changing anything ```bash sach <file...> --dry-run --json ``` `--dry-run` writes nothing. Parse the JSON from stdout; it is an array with one object per file. ### Step 2 — Report what you found, and wait Tell the user what is in their files **before** cleaning anything. Order the report by how much it exposes them: 1. **Location first.** Any entry with `"danger": true` is GPS or location data. Say it plainly: these coordinates point at a real place, usually a home or workplace. Quote the coordinates. 2. **Names second.** Author, creator, last-modified-by, camera owner. 3
