So, you’re just using the Pwned Passwords API?

Is there any actual value that you’re adding here?

Thanks for asking!

I'm very skeptical about checking my passwords on any website, so I've built this command-line tool which is using the PwnedPassword API with K-Anonymity.

Secondly, it can also be used in any JavaScript Application to check user passwords.
