Guide
Chronos provides eight specialized modules for processing credential data in various formats. Each module is designed for specific tasks - from sorting mixed formats to extracting data from archives. This guide covers how to use each module effectively and optimize your data processing workflow.
Interface Overview
The Chronos interface consists of:
- Module Selector: Dropdown menu to switch between the 8 available modules
- Options Section: Module-specific configuration options
- Results Section: Real-time statistics and progress indicators
- Execute Button: Starts processing with current configuration
Module Selection
The dropdown menu provides access to all modules, with the ULP series being the primary tools:
Primary Modules (ULP Series)
- ULP Sorter ⭐ - The most powerful module: categorizes ALL credential formats with built-in filtering
- ULP Cleaner - Advanced cleaning specifically for URL:Login:Password data
- ULP Extractor - Sophisticated extraction from archives and text files
Specialized Modules
- LP Cleaner - For simple login:password validation
- Anti-Public - For finding unique/private credentials
Utility Modules
- Splitter - Basic file splitting
- Joiner - Basic file joining
- Filter - Simple line filtering for general files (use ULP Sorter for credential filtering)
Detailed Use Cases
Global Configuration
Access settings through the Settings page to configure:
- Thread Count: Number of parallel threads (default: CPU cores)
- Buffer Size: I/O buffer size for file operations
- Queue Size: Write queue for batched disk operations
Higher thread counts improve speed but increase CPU/memory usage. Start with your CPU core count.

Summary
Chronos provides a complete credential processing toolkit centered around the powerful ULP modules:
- ULP Sorter ⭐ - The flagship module that recognizes ALL formats with built-in filtering
- ULP Cleaner & Extractor - Advanced cleaning and extraction specifically for credentials
- Specialized modules - Anti-Public for uniqueness, LP Cleaner for simple validation
- Smart deduplication - Fast or Low Memory strategies
- Archive support - ZIP, RAR, 7z with password handling
Remember: For credential data, always start with ULP Sorter - it combines format detection, categorization, AND filtering in one powerful module. The basic Filter module is rarely needed.
