Decrypt formseal ciphertexts locally.
formseal-inbox decrypts form submissions downloaded by formseal-fetch. Nothing is decrypted in transit or on the server — only the holder of the private key can read submissions.
formseal-inbox is not a hosted service or dashboard. It is a CLI decryption utility.
