Rooted SBR CLI: recover C2PA provenance for stripped media from the command line

rooted-sbr

Recover stripped C2PA provenance for AI-generated media from your terminal.

rooted-sbr is the command-line client for Rooted, an open, vendor-neutral C2PA Soft Binding Resolution (SBR) server backed by Backblaze B2. When an image loses its embedded C2PA manifest (after a screenshot or a re-encode), Rooted recovers the signed provenance by matching an invisible watermark or a perceptual-hash fingerprint, and returns it with a tamper-evident transparency-log proof.

The CLI talks to the same public SBR API the web client and the MCP server use. It defaults to the live deploy; nothing is mocked, every command hits the real service.

Install

pip install rooted-sbr

Use

# recover the provenance of a (possibly stripped) image
rooted recover stripped.jpg

# fetch a recovered manifest by id (system provenance only; personal provenance withheld)
rooted manifest urn:c2pa:demo-0000-0000-0000-000000000001

# the transparency-log inclusion proof for a manifest
rooted proof urn:c2pa:demo-0000-0000-0000-000000000001

# the advertised soft-binding algorithms, and the live service status
rooted algorithms
rooted status

Point it at your own Rooted instance with --api-url or the ROOTED_API_URL environment variable.

Provenance proves origin, not truth.
