# Crypto / Decode Playbook
When you have unknown ciphertext (CTF flag, leaked DB field, captured
token, encoded payload), the right tool depends on the cipher class.
## 1. Identify FIRST
### Unknown text → automated cracker
```bash
# Ciphey — original (Python, slowed maintenance)
ciphey -t "$CIPHERTEXT"
# Ares — Rust rewrite (faster, current)
ares -t "$CIPHERTEXT"
