A "key" is a word or phrase which can be used as a "fake name" of a kanji. Key can be a real meaning of kanji (e.g. 一 = "one"), or just something helpful to remember a kanji. Keys are not strictly equal to meanings, but usually they are close enough.
Here you can find keys for 3100+ kanji.
- kanji-keys.json - JSON object; keys are kanji themselves, values are objects with two fields:
uniq- unique key: string, required, unique non-empty valuekeys- other keys: array of strings, required, may be empty
- kanji-keys.md - table for convenient viewing on GitHub
For each kanji, there is a unique key and other keys. Other keys usually better in terms of relation to actual meaning of a kanji, but are not guaranteed to be unique. Also, there may not be other keys, if unique key is sufficient.
Most of unique keys are the same as in RTK, but not all of them. Also, there are extra kanji, which are not in RTK - those are from my TopoKanji project.
