Certigo is a Go command-line utility for examining, dumping, and validating TLS/SSL certificates in formats like X.509 (DER/PEM), PKCS7, PKCS12, and JCEKS. It can connect to remote servers (including via STARTTLS protocols) to inspect and verify certificate chains, with JSON output for scripting.

Use cases

  • inspect a certificate file from the command line
  • debug ssl/tls handshake issues with a remote server
  • convert certificates between pem, der, pkcs12 and other formats
  • validate a certificate chain and find common certificate errors
  • check for expired certificates on a database or mail server via starttls
  • script certificate analysis with output and jq
  • examine a java keystore or pkcs12 bundle

When to choose

  • you need a quick CLI to dump or validate certificates in many formats
  • you are debugging TLS connections to servers using STARTTLS like MySQL, SMTP, or LDAP
  • you want scriptable JSON output for certificate auditing

When to avoid

  • you need a full PKI or certificate authority management solution
  • you want a GUI certificate inspector
  • you need continuous certificate lifecycle management or automated renewal
