59CHAT Terminal Interface

## 59CHAT exists for professionals who understand that true privacy isn't a feature.
It's **architecture**. Terminal-native. **Low retention by design.** Every message self-destructs in **59 seconds after read**, rooms expire in **59 minutes**, and empty rooms are destroyed as soon as the last participant leaves.

---

## ⚡ Installation

We don't do config files. We don't do electron wrappers. A single binary.

```bash
pip install 59chat
```

## 🚀 Usage

### 01 - ACQUIRE
No registration. No email. Just a disposable identity generated on the fly.

```bash
59chat --new
```

### 02 - CONNECT
Join a secure, quiet room.

```bash
59chat --join ROOM_ID
```

## 🛡️ The Architecture of Silence

### MINIMAL RETENTION
Messages are held **in memory only** while a room is alive. After they are read, they burn in 59 seconds. Empty rooms are removed immediately, and idle rooms die after 59 minutes.

### NO SIGNUP FLOW
No registration. No email. No account ceremony. Create a room, share the code, talk, and leave.

### BUILT FOR PRECISION
No Electron. No trackers. **No bloat.** A single binary that does *one thing flawlessly.*
