pychd-pyobf
Anonymise identifiers, string constants, docstrings, and metadata
inside a CPython .pyc while preserving the opcode stream exactly.
Built to neutralise LLM training-data memorisation when benchmarking
Python decompilers: even if an LLM has seen the original source on
the internet, the anonymised .pyc does not contain the surface
tokens (variable names, comments, docstrings) it would use to
recognise the source.
Covers every CPython release pychd recognises: 3.0–3.14.
- 3.14 (the running interpreter) is rewritten natively via
types.CodeType.replace(). - 3.0–3.13 are rewritten via a subprocess into a uv-managed Python of that minor version, so the obfuscator stays a tiny dependency.
Pair with pychd-pyfuzz (random valid-Python source generator) for
the strongest available contamination guarantee.
See the main pychd README for the broader story.
Install
pip install pychd-pyobf
Use
pychd-pyobf rewrite IN.pyc OUT.pyc --mapping mapping.json
The --mapping flag (optional) writes the original-to-anonymised
identifier dict to JSON for audit / debugging. Without it, the
mapping is discarded after rewriting.
Status
Pre-release. API and CLI are still evolving with the parent project.
