Algorand find missing seed word

Overview

Find a missing word in an Algorand seed phrase.

Requirements

node & npm. Find out how to install these on your platform here.

Security & Dependencies

The code does not include any network code or any other way to exfiltrate your seed phrase.

The only package imported is the official JS algorand sdk algosdk, which is used to validate the seed phrase.

The code is immutably published to npm as version 1.0.0 and there is a call for community developers to audit it here.

Usage

You can run this directly like so, replacing any seed word you don't know with XXX:

npx [email protected] [your 25 seed words]

The first time you run this, it will ask if it is OK to install the package.

Need to install the following packages:
  [email protected]
Ok to proceed? (y) y

Type y and press ENTER to proceed.

⚠️ Windows issue

If you have just installed nodejs on Windows for this, you may get an error while trying to run the command: code ENOENT ... C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\npm ...

You can try running the following command, which should fix the issue:

mkdir %APPDATA%\npm

Then try the npx ... command again.

Done!
AFTER RECOVERY, MAKE SURE TO REKEY YOUR ADDRESS OR MOVE YOUR FUNDS TO A NEW ONE

You may have multiple matches output, as in the above example. If you have more than one missing words, you will almost certainly get a lot of matches.
