Skill: get-env-var
Fetch a secret from the team's Infisical workspace into the current shell so the next command can use it.
When to use
- A command or script needs an env var that is not set, such as
BLOB_READ_WRITE_TOKEN. - A token, API key, or other secret is missing from the environment.
- The user asks to load secrets from Infisical.
Setup (once per machine)
- Install the CLI on macOS:
brew install infisical/get-cli/infisical. - Check auth with
infisical user get; if it fails, runinfisical loginand complete the browser flow. - For CI or other non-interactive runs, set
INFISICAL_TOKENfrom a machine identity; the CLI skips login when it is present. - This repo is already project-linked via tracked
.infisical.json(workspaceId: "e9f4542a-8714-46c3-a8fd-99d8cb370aeb", emptydefaultEnvironment). From the repo root,infisicaldefaults to thedevenvironment slug when--envis omitted.
